After kicked off from top spot by Micromax
in mobile market in India, Samsung loses its top position in tablet market too.
This time Indian domestic electronic company iBall has done this in tablet
market. According to IDC (International
Data Corporation), iBall has topped the Indian tablet market in quarter four of
2014. As Samsung is continuously loosing its shares in electronic market.
Some domestic companies of India and China have played a huge role for such a poor
condition of Samsung.
In quarter four, iBall had 15.6% of market
shares followed by Samsung (12.9%), Datawind (9.6%), Lenovo (9.4%) and HP
(8.7%). While rest 43.8% of market shares are acquired by some companies. iBall
had only 4.5% of the market shares in quarter four of 2013 and within one year
its growth is more than triple which is incredible. The main reason
behind its growth is low cost devices with remarkable features.
Indian market has reported shipments of
0.96 million tablets in quarter four which is 3.6% more than the previous
quarter of the same year. Reports also said that 7 inch tablet with less than
150 USD are more in demand. A maximum tablet user owns android operating system.
IDC report said, local brands are doing
pretty good in the electronic market. In future we might see re-entry of some
older player in top five vendors. We might see a single digit growth in 2015 as
compared to 2014. Online retailers are more active to sell electronic products
than offline retailers.

We hope that Samsung will come up with
something better in next few months and regain its position.
