Internet penetration:- Mega city, Mumbai is on the top of the internet usage list based on the number of internet users with 8.1 million claimed Internet users and 6.2 million active users, according to a survey conducted by IMRB and Internet and Mobile Association of India (IAMAI). Delhi including the NCR came in the second spot with 6.2 claimed users and 5 million active Internet users. Eastern city of Kolkata took the third place while the city described as the silicon valley of India managed only a sixth position on the list of internet usage. The survey shows an interesting fact that the internet is not limited to the rich populations in the country as towns with a population of less than 200,000 together had more internet users than the top four metro cities combined. The survey considers active internet users as those who have used the internet at least once in the last one month while a claimed internet user is someone who has used Internet at any point in time. IAMAI's president Dr. Subho Ray explained, "Two things are absolutely clear from the survey. First, the internet density is very poor in top metros in spite of awareness, education and infrastructure. Secondly, internet is now clearly and firmly a small town phenomenon." The survey included 13,065 households and 49,942 individuals in urban areas and 3,500 households and 13,209 individuals in the rural region. http://blog.hiveminds.in/2013/01/internet-usage-in-india/ Mumbai Population distribution:- Total Metropolitan Area Population of Mumbai in 2012 20,500,000 Metropolitan city 2012 13,000,000 Population of Mumbai Metropolitan city 2011 12,478,447 Metro (2011) 18,414,288 Total Male Population (2011) 6736815 Total Female Population (2011) 5741632 Population in 2009 13,922,125 Rank 1st1st Population of Mumbai - Mumbai is one of the most populated cities in the world.
