Research and Markets: India - Broadband Market

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/173863/india_broadband) has announced the addition of the "India - Broadband Market" report to their offering.

While India initially embraced the Internet with a degree of ambivalence, there was tremendous enthusiasm among dial-up users and an estimated 60% of Internet users were still regularly accessing the Internet via the country's more than 10,000 cybercafes. But when it came to high-speed broadband access, there was a reluctance to embrace, especially within the corporate sector, and broadband penetration has remained relatively slow. By early 2010, there were almost eight million broadband subscribers - a lowly penetration (by population) of about 0.7%. After a surge in broadband subscribers in 2006, the market settled back to a relatively modest 50% growth in 2007/08. WiMAX technology was attracting considerable interest in India as operators paid large licence fees on the back of the governments spectrum auction in mid-2010. Significant network rollouts are expected to follow. This report looks at the stage the development of broadband Internet has reached in India.
