India Mobile 2011
‘Mobile phone users’ in India and their ‘mobile usage behavior and preferences’
Study Overview
 Most ‘recent and representative’ survey-based estimates of mobile
phone users in urban and rural India
User-ship estimates is based on a very large land survey among 201,839 individuals spread across all mainland states &
union territories (covering all the 23 telecom circles) of the country. The survey was conducted between Apr-Mid June
2011 among 32,876 households in 104 cities and 15,889 households in 766 villages – a total of 48,765 households
 Most ‘comprehensive’ profiling of Indian mobile users – in their
demographics, psychographics and key mobile usage dynamics
A deeper profiling of the Indian mobile users, their consumption lifestyle and their mobile usage - including details about
their location, economic status, day-to-day lifestyle habits & preferences, and their mobile handset and service usage
patterns and preferences
Demographic profiling and individual level SIM and handset ownerships data is based on all mobile using individuals living in the surveyed households (74,237). Mobile
usage details and lifestyle profiling is based on the mobile using ‘respondent’ members (34,645)
Methodology Overview

A large-scale land survey was conducted to estimate and profile the Indian mobile users. The survey
covered ‘towns’ and ‘villages’ of all population strata in all the mainland states and and UTs in India
(covering all the key 80 of the total 88 regions in India as classified by NSSO) – all

23 telecom circles were covered extensively
The selection of towns and villages was done to attempt a best possible but practical ‘geographical’
coverage of the Indian population. The sampling within the selected towns was done on ‘2-stage
random’ basis
(firstly a random selection of polling booths, and then a random selection of households from the electoral list within each of
these randomly selected polling booths);
within villages, sampling was done on ‘systematic random’ basis
(selection of
every nth house in the village)

To estimate the mobile user-ship correctly and to make the findings representative of all mobile users
in India
(and not just of those surveyed),
telecom circle-wise, urban district/village class and SEC combination
level ‘household representation weights’ as derived from authentic ‘Govt. of India’ base-level
population statistics (NSSO/Census) were applied to the survey data.
‘telecom circle level’ and ‘operator level’ representations
TRAI data was also used to bring in appropriate
Topline Findings
103 mn mobile users added in last 1 year*

Mobile subscribers (user base) in India grew 34% to reach 407 mn (from 303 mn last year)

‘Active’ mobile subscriptions (active SIM base) grew 37% to reach 487 mn (from 355 mn last year)

Avg ‘users’ per household remain at 2.05; Avg ‘active SIMs’ per user is up marginally at 1.20

Almost 60% of all Indian households are still ‘single’ mobile user households

User base of active ‘multiple SIM’ users grew by 20 mn
* As of May-June 2011
(44%)
to touch 65 mn
(from 31% last year)
Growth driven more by Rural India

Rural India overtakes urban India on the base of both ‘users’ as well as ‘active SIMs’

Rural India saw higher increases in both ‘penetration’ & ‘tele-density’ (as compared to urban India)

Growth of subscribers was relatively more in ‘North’ and ‘South’ Indian circles

Though ‘B’ circles still account for the largest chunk of mobile users, ‘A’ circle grew the most

‘UP West’ showed the highest increase in user base, ‘UP East’ the highest increase in SIM base
Usage flattens, spends drop

The daily average talk time on ‘most used connection’ is up marginally at 24.7 minutes (from 23.5
minutes last year)

However, the average monthly spends on ‘most used connection’ went down 11% to `215
(from
`242 last year). On an average, rural users claim to spend about 17% less than the urban users

‘Outgoing STD’, ‘call waiting’ and ‘domestic roaming’ remain the most used services

Mobile users surfing internet on their mobile phones grew slowly (25%) to reach only 14.4 mn
(3.5% of all Indian mobile users).

However, 101 mn mobile connections (21%) have used ‘data’ services
9 out of 10 internet using mobile users remain ‘dual device’ users (accessing internet on both mobile and PC)
