Also, Motorola has decided to sell the handsets through e-commerce platform rather than the conventional retial outlets. Marcus Frost, Senior Marketing Director for Motorola Mobility EMEA & APAC, told The Hindu , “Massive. India is really important to us. There is a huge potential here, market is growing at a great pace.” Internet penetration in India is about 11 per cent. However, it is growing exponentially. India has second fastest growth globally in terms of online, and e-commerce grew 88 per cent last year. So, there is an explosion of opportunity there. When you marry what we know about Indian consumer, products we have, the e-commerce growth here and the e-commerce channel that we have, it seems to be really a huge complement in terms of going-to-market.”
