Mobile Phone: India joins 200 million Club!
In July 2006, I informed my readers that India joined 100 million club in terms of mobile phone user base. It is now October 2007 and within just 14 months, the number of mobile phone users has increased nearly 100 million. So, India has now more than 200 million mobile phone users and India is now one of the top markets in the mobile phone sector.

 

 

Business Standard reported:

 

The total number of wireless subscribers in the country — including GSM, CDMA and fixed mobile — has reached 209.08 million and the tele-density stood at 21.85 per cent as on September 30 this year. The total telephone subscriber base stood at 248 million, much ahead of the target month of December.

 

 The wireless segment added 7.80 million subscribers in September, compared with 8.31 million users accrued during the comparable period of August.

 

 During the July-September period, Indian operators added 43.97 million users, according to data released by the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (Trai).

 

 

Well, I could not find more information about this matter. However, I guess that India is hoping to get 500 million phone users by 2010. The demand for mobile phone is still strong in India.
