Samsung has said that it's going to further consolidate its leadership in the lucrative smartphone market in India by frequently launching more smartphones and services in the country. The company accounted for 40 percent of the market share in the first quarter of this year.

Pointing out that the company began 2017 on a great note in the country, senior vice president of the company's mobile business in India Asim Warsi said that “We are growing and further consolidating our leadership in the market. There will be continuous new launches not just on devices side but on the services side. Collectively, it will all come together to grow and gain in future as well.”

He made his comments after launching the Galaxy J7 Pro and Galaxy J7 Max in the country. They are two new mid-range handsets and one of them, the Galaxy J7 Pro, even has support for Samsung Pay. It will be crucial in bringing Samsung Pay to the masses in India.

Warsi mentioned that all price segments are growing evenly for the company in India and that's how it's going to be down the line as well. He mentioned that Samsung Pay will be expanded to more devices in the company's portfolio for customers in the country. Warsi said that the adoption rate for Samsung Pay in India since its launch on March 22 is “perhaps best we have seen in any market” so far.
