But for the last few years, the sales of the company have fallen down a few places, leaving the company concerned about the sales of its gadgets in one of the fastest growing economies in the world.

It is also to be mentioned that India is also the biggest competitor for mobile gaming in the world, and has a business model that earned the industry $930 million in 2021.
