Indian smartphone market shrinking?
A Reuters report, citing Counterpoint Research, said that India's smartphone sales fell 9 per cent year-on-year in the first nine weeks of 2026. The global shortage of DRAM and NAND flash components has pushed manufacturing costs up sharply. Brands have had little choice but to pass those costs on to buyers.
Across key models from Samsung, Oppo, Vivo, Xiaomi, and Realme, average selling prices have risen by roughly Rs 1,500 compared to equivalent devices a year ago. In a market where Rs 10,000 to Rs 20,000 phones drive the majority of volumes, that kind of increase is enough to make a buyer pause or walk away.
Counterpoint has projected a potential 10 percent contraction for India's full-year smartphone market in 2026 if conditions don't improve. IDC's global forecast is even grimmer, a 12.9 per cent drop in worldwide shipments, bringing total units below 1.12 billion for the year.
