【New Delhi】The Indian tablet market reported a strong third quarter, clocking 8 per cent and 9 per cent growth over the previous quarter and the same quarter of last year respectively.

　Tablet makers shipped 0.94 million units in July-September 2014, said International Data Corporation (IDC). Samsung led the market with 22.2 per cent share, followed by Micromax (10.9 per cent), iBall (10.6 per cent), DataWind (8.2 per cent) and Apple (6.7 per cent).
　In terms of operating system, Android had a 90 per cent market share in the third quarter of 2014 and is expected to continue to dominate in the foreseeable future as well. Windows-based tablets, priced under USD 200 are expected to accelerate the adoption rate, albeit from a low base, IDC said.
　"Due to continuous onslaught from the 'phablets', small screen tablets are taking a hit and there is more uptake on tablets which are screen sized between 8-9 inch," IDC India Research Manager, Client Devices Kiran Kumar said.
