Tabs flow into Indo-Market Arena

It seems like tabs are just flowing from all parts of the business around the IT sector in to the technology market i.e. the market which has never given up saying its an end, seeing the trend it still says "There is lot to come, Baby".
After Aaakash aka Ubislate, the Ultra Cheap tablet launched in October, 2011, there had been raining tablets into the Indian Market i.e. the era started by an IIT entrepreneur Rohit Pande with a launch of classpad then followed by many companies like Mercury pushing Mtab into the market with a price tag of Rs.13990, soon after big Tele Giant Bharti too entering the segment market with release of enhanced version of Beetel Magiq 2 price under 10K, then lot of SME too entering the market like LACS, a Bangalore based company coming with its tabs named on the spices in Traditional Indian Kitchen like Pepper, Tamarind, Mirchi and Paprika, the cheapest one priced at 6.5K, soon after followed by Spice Tele pushing M-270 tab into the market.
Sooner or later after the Aakash launch the controversies surrounded regarding the performance, battery and screen quality, yet though it was one of its kind Tab that has just pinned each and every section of the Tech Market with news of pre-booking 14 Lakh tablets in just 14 days of its launch.
The year ended but as the saying goes, Market never sleeps so did by the rivals in the market. In January 2011 early enough the market saw the launch of the Tabplus Rio, a tab with pretty good configuration but priced at 11.5K, then followed by many companies like Asus and many more. Considering the big newsmaker after Aaakash i.e. PentaPad released in collab with BSNL under the same price tag as was for Aakash.
As and when the Pentapad hit the market it took an edge over and above Aakash with better performance, which was a must for any tablet under the same price tag to come up and roll over. The tab came in with and without the bundled offers with BSNL. But as previously said "Market Never Sleeps" so didn’t Aakash Manufacturer with the re-launch of Aakash-2 into the market with better performance and better battery life and thanks to capacitive touch screen, which was needed for any Tab to be a success at this point in the market across all segment customers. The most important thing was the price remained unchanged keeping the improved configuration at the price tag of just 3K is just wonderful and the astonishing.
The tabs kept on coming but the first one is remembered always, so is Aakash in Indian Tablet Market. If you don’t agree, search in google india page just type A, the aaksh will be in the top-5 recommend searches.

Call it like "Minor hitting hard on Majors". Here the minor includes Aakash, Beetel Magix and newest one is Classpad.

Aakash that was well received by the people in India showing an enormous response to such an extent that it was sold out in first three days of its launch over internet on datawind website. Beetel Magix 2 being the successor of Beetel Magix, introduced the high end configuration in the tablet market under 10K making it prominent competitor in the tablet market. Now we have a new competitor Classpad, brought in by Rohit Pande, an Alumni of IIT, Delhi and IIM, Calcutta that ranges from 8K to 14K, considered to be the toughest competitor in the Tablet market in India.

With the boom of new popups like aakash and classpad etc, the majors in the market are facing a tough time with the sales that primarily the Blackberry after selling 90K tablets in first 9 months of its launch in India slashed rates by 50% for a week to make its playbook play over the tablet market.

And now Motorola Xoom which was launched in India with a big hype for being the first tablet to run on Google’s Honeycomb but received a lukewarm response. Experts believe that despite it fantastic features the tab couldn’t market itself due to its high price tag. They too slashed the prices by 11K. And now the Electronics manufacturer Sony announced its 9.4-inch Tablet S is getting a 5K price cut, lowering the price of the 16GB model to 20K and the 32GB model to 25K.
