NEW DELHI: Samsung<\/a> and Datawind<\/a> were locked in a battle of claims, with both claiming to be No. 1 in the tablets<\/a> market in India for the January-March quarter.

The Korean electronics major disputed recent data from market research agencies International Data Corporation (
IDC<\/a>) and CyberMedia Research (CMR<\/a>) that showed that it was trailing low-cost tablet maker Datawind in India by volumes and argued that it was the leader in both volume and value terms.

\n\n\t“Samsung is the clear leader in the tablet market and we have been consistently consolidating our lead every month in the market,” a Samsung India spokesperson said.\n

Datawind retorted by pointing to the rankings released by IDC and CMR. “Our low-cost
devices<\/a> which come bundled with one year of free web access remain one of the only ways for many in India to access the internet,” said Suneet Singh Tuli, president and CEO of Datawind.

\n\n\tThe comments come after a CMR report Thursday claimed that Datawind led the market with 34.2% share, with Samsung trailing with 21% during the first quarter ended March. A separate IDC report earlier said that Datawind topped the tablet market with 27.6% volume market share, with Samsung at No. 2.\n

However,
Gfk<\/a> data suggests that Samsung was the leading tablet vendor in the first quarter with 38.5% volume market share, up from 37.9% share in the previous quarter, with home-bred Micromax at No. 2. The data showed that the company also led in value terms, with its share rising to 46.3% in the first quarter from 45.5% in the fourth quarter of 2015, with Apple trailing with 25.6% share. Datawind didn’t feature in the top three.

\n\n\tIDC tracks shipments or sell-ins which means handsets going from manufacturers to retailers. GfK tracks end-consumer sales or sell-throughs in 50,000-plus population markets.\n

\n\n\tAs per the Gfk data, the tablet market marginally increased to 1.8 million in 2015, from 1.77 million tablet units sold in 2014.\n

\n\n\tThis calendar year too, the Indian tablet market is expected to be stagnant, but is likely to witness changing trends such as healthy growth in commercial segment, migration to higher screen tablets and increase in adoption of 4G-based tablets, as per various market research agencies\n

\n\n\tSamsung said it has increased its focus on the commercial or enterprise segment for its tablets, and had also launched its latest India-made iris technology equipped tablet, which can be linked with India's Aadhaar system, and the company is focusing on government agencies and enterprises for the deployment of its tablets.\n

\n\n\t“We have talked to various departments on how to build this [iris-based tablet] as part of their requirements. Wherever we have gone, we have got enthusiastic response, primarily because people wanted an alternative to fingerprint technology,” Samsung India Vice President Sukesh Jain told ET.\n

\n\n\tBesides the government sector, the company’s targeting banking and telecom sectors will be among the front runners in terms of adoption for its latest products. Samsung, which counts the country’s top 500 corporates as its enterprise customers for tablet products, said that 25% of tablet sales come from its enterprise business in the country.\n

\n\n\tDatawind, on its part, said that it will continue to play the price game in a highly price sensitive market.\n

\n\n\t“Datawind firmly believes that the digital divide can be addressed through technology intervention at an affordable price point and we are focused on driving the cost downward to a level where access to technology becomes ‘universally affordable”, said Tuli.\n<\/body>","next_sibling":[{"msid":52452381,"title":"HTC revamps handset portfolio, aims 10-12% smartphone market share","entity_type":"ARTICLE","link":"\/news\/htc-revamps-handset-portfolio-aims-10-12-smartphone-market-share\/52452381","category_name":null,"category_name_seo":"telecomnews"}],"related_content":[],"msid":52451558,"entity_type":"ARTICLE","title":"Samsung, Datawind claim India tablet market leadership","synopsis":"Gfk data suggests that Samsung was the leading tablet vendor in the first quarter with 38.5% volume market share, up from 37.9% share in the previous quarter, with home-bred Micromax at No. 2.","titleseo":"telecomnews\/samsung-datawind-claim-india-tablet-market-leadership","status":"ACTIVE","authors":[{"author_name":"Danish Khan","author_link":"\/author\/479206691\/danish-khan","author_image":"https:\/\/etimg.etb2bimg.com\/authorthumb\/479206691.cms?width=100&height=100","author_additional":{"thumbsize":true,"msid":479206691,"author_name":"Danish Khan","author_seo_name":"danish-khan","designation":"Senior Assistant Editor","agency":false}}],"Alttitle":{"minfo":""},"artag":"ETTelecom","artdate":"2016-05-26 23:06:23","lastupd":"2016-05-26 23:06:23","breadcrumbTags":["Samsung","Tablets","IDC","GfK","CMR","Datawind","Devices"],"secinfo":{"seolocation":"telecomnews\/samsung-datawind-claim-india-tablet-market-leadership"}}" data-authors="[" danish khan"]" data-category-name="" data-category_id="" data-date="2016-05-26" data-index="article_1">
