India will become the world’s second largest mobile broadband market within next four years with 367 million mobile broadband connections, second only to China, which will have 639 million mobile broadband subscriptions in service, the GSMA predicts:
The U.S. market, in contrast will have 337 million mobile broadband connections by 2016.
Mobile broadband connections currently stand at a bit more than 10 million HSPA connections across the country. That number is expected to grow by 900 percent to 100 million connections in 2014.
Tablets are a new factor in some markets. So is Long Term Evolution, though not in the Indian market.
