Some of the direct competitors for Mobiistar phones include Chinese brands such as Oppo, Vivo, and Xiaomi. Mobiistar has chosen India as its global headquarters to run operations in other countries. Factors such as India’s rising middle class income, economic growth and favorable political climate have played a crucial role in this decision. Mobiistar has tied up with V-Sun Technologies to locally manufacture handsets. The Haryana based company has already started its trial production with Mobiistar. Mobiistar is expected to launch its first handsets exclusively online in the price range of INR 6,000 – INR 10,000. Mobiistar plans to have 850 service outlets for its mobile phone on the first day of its launch followed by up to 1000 outlets within the next three months.
As a part of its marketing promotions strategy, Mobiistar plans to copy Xiaomi by focusing on social media marketing and digital channels. Starting with the current workforce of 50, the brand is expected to hire 200 employees in the upcoming months.
