New Delhi: South Korean tech major Samsung registered strong double-digit growth in March in India, courtesy of the success of the flagship Galaxy S22 series and the uptake of the Galaxy A line. In the January-March quarter, Samsung’s smartphone business registered nine per cent value growth over the same period last year. Samsung grabbed 22 per cent market share by volume, and 27 per cent share by revenue, according to Counterpoint Research's Monthly India Smartphone Tracker.

“At Samsung, customers are at the heart of everything we do. Our recent launches – the flagship Galaxy S22 series and Galaxy A series – have witnessed strong demand from consumers, making March a record month for us. The exceptional growth in the month of March points to a stronger double-digit growth for Samsung in the current April to June 2022 quarter.
