This dissertation analyzes the resource-based view in conjunction with the first- mover advantages in the Indian mobile phone manufacturing industry, in order to explore the relation between sequence of entry and performance of multinational firms. After conducting the research, it is found that the sustainability of the first-mover advantages is dependent on a combination of factors.

  • Chinese Sold Electronics Worth ₹1.4L Cr in India in ’19
    Chinese sold electronics worth ₹1.4L cr in India in ’19 China Brands Had 71% Share In Smartphones, Indian 1.6% [email protected] New Delhi: Even as anti-Chinese sentiment gathers steam across the country, the hold of the dragon on the Indian electronics market remains strong. Chinese companies registered sales of nearly Rs 1.4 lakh crore in the Indian electronics market last year as they dominated the fast-growing categories of smartphones, televisions, laptops, and even smart bands and watches. This has been at the cost of Indian brands like Micromax, Lava, Intex and Karbonn, and MNCs from countries such as South Korea (Samsung & LG) and Japan (Sony). In 2019, the Chinese brands closed the year with a share of 71% in the revenue-intensive smartphones category, and this further increased to 81% in the first quarter (January-March) of this year, according to numbers sourced from Counterpoint Research. While Chinese brands such as Xiaomi, Oppo, Vivo and RealMe strengthened, it was a sad story for the homegrown Indian brands that finished 2019 with only 1.6% share, which further dipped to under 1% in the first quarter of 2020, Prachir Singh, a research analyst at Counterpoint, said. Such has been the onslaught of the Chinese brands that even the well-entrenched South Korean Samsung has been made to play second fiddle, much to its discomfort (as it recently also bid adieu to its business in China). Apple is the only other non-Chinese MNC that does business, but even its share remains marginal. A Xiaomi spokesperson said, “We witnessed a strong demand for our products during the lockdown and the same is now gradually rising… we continue to ramp up our manufacturing capacities.” Phones are not the only category that the Chinese are vying for.

Further, outlook on the rating is ‘Stable’. ICRA has also revised the short term rating assigned to the Rs. 25.0 crore non-fund based limits of JMIPL from [ICRA]A1 (pronounced ICRA A one) to [ICRA]A2+ (pronounced ICRA A two plus). While revising the rating, ICRA has taken a consolidated view of Jaina Marketing & Associates (JMA) and Jaina Mobile India Private Limited (JMIPL), given the strong operational, financial and management linkages among the two entities. In the rationale, “Jaina” refers to the consolidated figures of both the entities mentioned above. The revision of Jaina’s ratings takes into account increased pressures on Karbonn mobiles profitability during 9M FY2016 due to increased competitive intensity in the Indian handset industry leading to decline in its volumes and Average Selling prices (ASP). Further, while the sales of Panasonic mobiles have steadily grown during this period, its profitability too has been under pressure due to significant price drops on handsets to clear the inventory and considerable investments being made towards branding and marketing of the brand in the initial years. ICRA notes that Jaina has an arrangement with Panasonic mobiles which allows it to use the ”Panasonic” brand name over a 10 year period.

    Mobile phone From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search "Cell Phone" redirects here. For the film, see Cell Phone (film). For the Handphone film, see Handphone (film). The Qualcomm QCP-2700, a mid-1990s candybar style phone, and an iPhone 5, a current production smartphone. A mobile phone (also known as a cellular phone, cell phone, and a hand phone) is a device that can make and receive telephone calls over a radio link while moving around a wide geographic area. It does so by connecting to a cellular network provided by a mobile phone operator, allowing access to the public telephone network. By contrast, a cordless telephone is used only within the short range of a single, private base station. In addition to telephony, modern mobile phones also support a wide variety of other services such as text messaging, MMS, email, Internet access, short-range wireless communications (infrared, Bluetooth), business applications, gaming and photography. Mobile phones that offer these and more general computing capabilities are referred to as smartphones. The first hand-held mobile phone was demonstrated by John F. Mitchell [1] [2] [3] and Dr Martin Cooper of Motorola in 1973, using a handset weighing around 2.2 pounds (1 kg).[4] In 1983, the DynaTAC 8000x was the first to be commercially available. From 1990 to 2011, worldwide mobile phone subscriptions grew from 12.4 million to over 6 billion, penetrating about 87% of the global population and reaching the bottom of the economic pyramid.[5][6][7][8] History Main article: History of mobile phones An evolution of mobile phones Before the devices that are now referred to as mobile phones existed, there were some precursors.
