Around 59 percent of Data Cards were sold with operator bundling in 1H FY2016-2017 that increased to around 95 percent in 2H FY2016-2017.
"Mi-Fi devices are expected to show a further rise in the future. Inbuilt battery with anywhere, anytime data connectivity because of the various affordable data plans in Mi-Fi devices are the key features contributing to its growth. A large number of user support with a single device is also one of the reasons for the growth in Mi-Fi devices. The significant push by telecom service providers is also making and continue to make Mi-Fi cards the most favored option in India," Shipra further added.
