Smartphone brands shift focus to offline sales in smaller towns
New Delhi: Smartphone brands are increasingly pivoting to offline channels, tapping into smaller towns with easier access to financing in a bid to sell more premium handsets, marking a notable departure from ecommerce platforms. Shipments to online retailers fell for the seventh consecutive month in April. This was largely due to online-centric brands making a sharp shift towards offline distribution, said market trackers. 'Online channel shipments faced double digit declines for the second consecutive month. In April, it declined by more than 20%. Meanwhile offline channels have grown by more than 10%, marking the eighth consecutive month of growth for offline, which also faced headwinds of low overall demand,' said Upasana Joshi, research manager, IDC India. Joshi said overall shipments were flat at around 12 million in April, compared to March, reflecting another flat quarter for the smartphone market. According to IDC, nearly all brands are implementing an omnichannel strategy, expanding into smaller towns/cities, offering attractive channel margins and support, which should sustain in the coming quarters. Live Events Lower appeal for online sales has made nearly every brand reduce volumes to online channels, including those earlier heavily reliant on ecommerce for distribution. For instance, Motorola reduced shipments to online channels to 64% in Q1 2025 from 82% a year earlier. For OnePlus, the figure fell to 71% from 85% in the same period, according to market researcher Canalys. Xiaomi, which started its Indian venture selling through ecommerce flash sales, currently garners 39% of its volumes through ecommerce, compared to 45% in Q1 2024, Canalys data showed. "Over the last one and half years, Xiaomi has pivoted from being an online-centric brand to taking an omnichannel strategy which aims to provide a unified experience to the consumer, ensuring the same product, same price, across every touchpoint," Sudhin Mathur, chief operating officer, Xiaomi India, told ET. Market trackers said brands are realising that ecommerce penetration in India has hit a plateau, with a majority of the country still catered to by brick-and-mortar stores, despite online channels helping brands reach remote locations. Spike in online sales during the pandemic has not sustained as consumer behaviour in rural areas is slow in transition. According to Canalys, the share of online sales of smartphones fell to 36% in Q1 2025 from 45% a year earlier. It said brands are relying on retail and distribution networks to drive sales. 'Channel schemes, offline activations, and tighter sell-out coordination will again define share gains,' said Sanyam Chaurasia, analyst at Canalys. He added that increased competition in designs and specifications are pushing brands towards showcasing products in offline stores where paper financing is also much easier. Tarun Pathak, research director, Counterpoint Research said the lure of consumers towards online channels came due to easier availability, deep discounts, and exclusive launches. Most consumers were also not spending more than Rs 10,000-15,000 on handsets. With offline channels now seeing more price parity, and more bundled offers, along with easier access to financing, consumers are increasingly veering towards it, especially for high-end models, he said.

Proposed dilution of local content rules may hurt Indian telecom firms, benefit MNCs: GTRI
New Delhi: Major dilutions to local content rules for the telecom sector under the Public Procurement Order could negatively impact Indian firms by giving greater access to multinational corporations (MNCs) in government contracts without manufacturing in India, according to the Global Trade Research Initiative ( GTRI ) . The GTRI in a note further said that the move will benefit major foreign MNCs active in the Indian telecom component industry. Earlier this month, on June 3, the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) initiated a public consultation to revise its Public Procurement (Preference to Make in India) (PPP-MII) Order for the telecom sector. The consultation, open to industry comments until July 3, proposes a series of technical adjustments to the existing local content (LC) framework -- changes that could have far-reaching consequences for the sector's future. "Department of Telecommunications (DoT) is moving to relax local content norms for government telecom procurement -- a shift that could favour multinational corporations (MNCs) like Cisco and Ericsson while undermining Indian manufacturers who have invested in domestic production and innovation," GTRI's note added prepared by former Indian Trade Service Officer, Ajay Srivastava said. It added that MNCs are "lobbying India's Department of Telecommunications (DoT) to ease local content (LC) requirements, as they struggle to qualify as Class-I local suppliers for government telecom tenders." India's current PPP-MII policy, which was first updated in October 2024, mandates that any firm seeking preference in government telecom tenders must meet a minimum 50 per cent local content threshold. Srivastava added in the note that in order to qualify as a "Class-I" supplier and enjoy pricing and selection advantages, firms must demonstrate that at least 50 per cent of a product's value is sourced or manufactured in India which has become a difficult task for MNCs. The PPP-MII policy applies to 36 key telecom product categories -- including routers, ethernet switches, GPON devices, media gateways, customer premises equipment (CPE), satellite terminals, telecom batteries, and optical fibre and cables. Under the current PPP-MII framework, several exclusions apply to the calculation of local content. Imported parts routed through Indian resellers, royalties, overseas technical fees, and refurbished products do not count toward Indian value addition. Design and software work performed in India is permitted, but the value generated is capped, with restrictions in place to prevent companies from inflating LC percentages purely on the basis of R&D activities while continuing to import most hardware components. Srivastava added in the note that global majors are finding it "difficult to meet these thresholds." He further added that the underlying issue is that most of the work performed in India is done on an outsourcing basis for their foreign parent companies. The parent companies retain ownership of intellectual property (IP) and earn the bulk of profits. Highlighting the impact of policy change, GTRI note said that the move will put Indian telecom firms -- who have made long-term investments in Indian-based manufacturing, R&D, and IP development -- at a severe disadvantage. "Such Indian firms would face the prospect of losing market share to foreign MNCs whose products remain largely imported and foreign-owned," the GTRI note added. It further points out that dilution of standards would discourage Indian firms from investing in genuine IP creation, as Class-I status could now be achieved simply through superficial assembly or software wrapping of imported goods. "India's telecom sector would remain reliant on foreign technologies, with little strategic control," the GTRI note added.

India needs more than coders: IIT directors speak out against ‘herd mentality' around computer science craze
The Price of Parity From Code to Country Redesigning the Future of Engineering You Might Also Like: 'Will date myself again': IIT graduate CEO falls in love with himself after an evening by the lake In a hard-hitting panel discussion held on the campus of IIT Madras on Friday, the directors of five prestigious Indian Institutes of Technology united in a common refrain: it's time to abandon the obsession with computer science engineering and instead channel talent into disciplines that are equally vital for India's growth. The session was part of the PanIIT Alumni Leadership Series (PALS), a voluntary initiative championing transformative conversations around engineering education in India As reported by The New Indian Express, IIT Madras director V Kamakoti set the tone for the discussion with a bold appeal: 'The country needs bright minds in other disciplines too.' He went on to emphasize that national toppers should be encouraged to pursue areas beyond computer science, noting that engineering knowledge should also find its way into civil services and policymaking for a more tech-savvy of the key reasons students are drawn almost blindly toward computer science, panelists said, is the lure of lucrative entry-level salaries. Shreepad Karmalkar, director of IIT Bhubaneswar, pointed out, 'This herd mentality needs to be gotten rid of.' He observed that while compensation packages for software roles might be tempting, this singular focus comes at the cost of neglecting critical sectors of national concerns were echoed by KN Satyanarayana, director of IIT Tirupati, who pointed to the growing void in core engineering disciplines . 'There is a big vacuum in the battery, semiconductor sectors which are the sunrise sectors,' he said, arguing that the need of the hour lies in nurturing chemical engineers and material scientists—professionals who can steer the nation's self-reliance in cutting-edge economic aspirations dominate student choices, BS Murty, director of IIT Hyderabad, delivered a stirring appeal to reorient that ambition. 'Put the country first over your personal aspirations,' he urged, calling on India's youth to think beyond just job security and high-paying R Desai, director of IIT Dharwad, chimed in with a message that connected engineering with social impact. He encouraged students to channel their creativity toward making India a better place to live in—reminding them that real engineering innovation solves problems for people, not just critiques of current trends, the panel also shared their forward-thinking vision for engineering education. Interdisciplinary learning , the integration of emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, a focus on sustainability, and stronger academia-industry partnerships were seen as key levers to make engineering education more relevant in the 21st was another focal point. The directors called for educational access to be broadened for students from varied socio-economic backgrounds, ensuring that engineering is not just elite but Chandrasekaran, chairperson of PALS, also weighed in on the discussion, supporting the vision that a paradigm shift in engineering education is not just necessary—but India stands at the crossroads of its technological and developmental journey, these IIT heads are urging the next generation of engineers to look beyond the keyboard. Because while coding may be king today, building the nation takes a much wider toolbox.
