The Count of Internet Users in India and analysis

Internet usuage was always been on the rise. I still remember the days where i used to wait till night so that the cost on my landline would be less when i was using landline. Later then came broadband connections and soon unlimited internet connection plans for Home Users.

The total amount of internet users in India is now estimated to be around 49 million according to JuxtConsult. A very intresting and break up analysis is provided by JuxtConsult on the Count of internet users in India. Out of the 49 million, 40 million are from urban and the rest 9 million are from rural.

There has been a tremendous growth in the usuage. I personnely can pretty much say that because when i was in school i know how many of my friends used internet(in 2000). Now almost 98% of the people whom i know have their online presence as well.

25 Million people browse internet daily in India and 9/10 daily users access internet either from home/ work. A part of them does access internet from both places.
