Consumer interest in buying updated feature rich smartphones has remained strong despite the economic slowdown. In a report by IDC, tech vendors shipped 12.8 million smartphones in Q3 of 2013 compared with 3.8 million sold in the same period of 2012.

 

Therefore, it is hard to assume that Indian consumers are not buying latest and most updated handsets. Moreover, the smartphone market is expected to show similar trend in the near future.

More and more brands have started taking the Indian smartphone market in a serious manner. For instance, Apple, the world's most valued tech company, has apparently asked the Indian government to relax the clause in FDI policy that requires companies to source at least 30% of the goods to be sold from local partners.
