So it has been a year; and what a year it has been for online India!
If numbers tell a story, then the story of online India seems to be a really exciting one!
Be it internet connections, smartphone users, tablet users, or social media; the numbers have shown a consistently increasing trend over the past one year.
You can check our previous presentations, Snapshot of Digital India (January 2012), Snapshot of Digital India (May 2012), and Snapshot of Digital India (August 2012) to get a comparative idea of the surge in online India’s numbers!
Towards the end of 2012, here’s our last compilation of the year; Snapshot of Digital India (November 2012)
To give you a sneak peek of what’s in store; this presentation includes the growth in terms of number of connections for telephones, mobiles phones, internet connections, etc.
It then moves on to give you the latest facts and figures about smarthphone and tablet usage; followed by statistics on growth of social media in India as well as a country-wise comparison of social media users.
We have also included a section on mobile commerce, an industry predicted to be valued at 20 million rupees by 2015; as well as social commerce, the phenomenon of buying products on social media. This is a trend that has not yet picked up in India, but is predicted to globally earn revenues of $30 billion/year by 2015.
No one knows what the future holds, but if past experience is anything to go by, India will continue to make waves online!
Do take a look at the presentation and share your thoughts!
Let’s discuss and debate the future possibilities!
