India will have have 236 million mobile Internet users by 2016

With China’s mobile growth starting to slow down, all eyes are turning to India as the next burgeoning mobile market to take advantage of. According to a statement released by the Internet and Mobile Association of India (IAMAI), the number of active Internet users in the country has increased by more than 50 million in the past sixth months, and has reached an all-time high of 350 million, 60% of which accessed the Internet through a mobile device. This means India is on track to have 236 million mobile Internet users by the end of the year.
