India And China Lithium-ion Technology Forum

According to a Gartner report, 2010 the handset sales in India reached over 138 million units. While the top five phone manufacturers held a dominant position and are likely to continue that way for the next few years, new carriers and local handset manufacturers are bringing down the cost per call and lowering the cost of handset ownership. The report further predicts that with the aid of low cost imports from China, phone sales will exceed 206 million units annually in 2014.
