After bringing the storm into the telecom sector, Jio had launched JioPhone. In the fourth quarter of last year, Reliance Jio has become the country's top feature phone brand with 27% market share. Counterpoint Research gave this information on Wednesday.
According to the news of IANS, Counterpoint said that the supply of Jiophone worth Rs 1,500 was boosted at the end of the fourth quarter and this device was able to bridge the demand and supply gap.
Tarun Pathak, associate director of Counterpoint, told IANS: "The main reasons for the record sales of this phone were to upgrade the phone to more than 6 million pre-orders and many feature phone users.
Pathak said, 'These users have always been using similar devices. But using the data on the same device, they did not need to learn more to run the smartphone. Along with this the sale of the phone by the company as 'free' has also increased.
