This marks a six percent jump from Q2 2024, highlighting Apple's growing presence in the premium segment in the country. The US tech giant solidified its position through strong sales of the iPhone 16 series, aggressive trade-in programs and attractive EMI offers.

Samsung also held a 23 percent market share by value, though this represented a slight one percent decline compared to Q2 2024. Meanwhile, Chinese brand Vivo maintained a steady 15 percent share, while Oppo dropped to 10 percent, down by one percent. Realme saw a decline to six percent in volume share (down two percent) and four percent in value share (also down two percent).
