Samsung was in 2nd position and is competing with iBall in market. Samsung has more of the market in B2B and little bit of retail market. Samsung’s major success was in the INR 10K-12K price segments.

The market for Datawind continued to decline because of demonetization and high rate of GST as compared with smartphone in the last couple of quarters.

On the other hand, iBall had a major growth in Government, Educational, and BFSI segment. It also had maximum growth in 4G market. 7” tablet of iBall still predominates market. On the other side in retail market, iBall holds good position for the Indian tablet market.

In Q4 2018, Apple launched the iPad Pro with specs, such as ace ID and USB-C and replaced the lighting port.

Future Outlook

“Enterprise Tablets will continue to contribute to market growth in verticals, including retail, healthcare, financial services, education, among others. Government will also continue to drive tablet adoption,” added Menka Kumari.
