India reaches ever closer to the 300 Million mark with 6.3 million new users in August. At this rate it will be before the end of the year that they will hit that magic number.

With all the consolidations there are 4 major players and then as the graph below shows 3 smaller challengers with a couple of very small players. This means that competition will remain stiff and mostly the eldorado for the Mobile Internet players of the world maybe.. great data packages or even unlimited packages will be in the mix.

India is already the second largest market after China. What is exciting is that unlike China, Indian users are part of the global community of Mobile Internet users. Most mobile community services like iGloo.mobi or itsmy.mobi experience a large part of their traffic already from sub-continent users.
