With the launch of the Mozilla ultra-cheap handsets in Indian followed by Android One handsets and other handset makers going low-priced on handsets, the market for cheap handsets is rolling on a fast pace. The low-cost tablet manufacturer, Datawind has plans to disrupt this pace catalyze the fast growing pace) with new phones that are cheap and that ensure you are hooked to Internet.

According to multiple news reports today, before this Diwali season, Datawin the maket of cheap Aakash tablets will launch new handset that will come “ bundled with free Internet for life”.

This will be a 3.5 inch phone running on the Android operating system.

The company according to news reports is in talks with three mobile service operators to find a way to offer free Internet bundled with the phone. More details on this has not been revealed now.

This we believe will be a disruptive equation for the market where one needs to invest on a phone (even though it comes cheap) with which one gets either 2 months 3 months free limited data as part of the launch offer. We do also need to mention here that this does not apply to all launching today. With a phone that is just INR 2K (less than half of the latest launch in India Android One) and free data bundle the deal will be more than attractive.
