NEW DELHI: The India smartphone market shipped 69 million units in the first half of 2024, representing a growth of 7.2% year-on-year, according to the latest report released by the International Data Corporation (IDC) on Tuesday. The research firm however cautioned that a muted consumer demand and rising average selling prices (ASPs) continue to restrict swift annual recovery.

In the quarter that ended June 2024, smartphone shipments grew by 3.2 year-on-year to 35 million units. This was the fourth consecutive quarter of year-on-year shipment growth, IDC said.
