This is the second case in the series on strategic analysis and growth in an emerging economy. In this case the mobile handset manufactures have to decide which competitive strategies to formulate and implement in India. India’s market is attractive and manufacturing inside India has become very cost effective. The competitors have to develop country specific strategies. The major players (Nokia, Samsung, and Sony Ericsson) have different resources and competitive strengths. They have to develop competitive generic strategies for India and develop multinational strategies for cost leadership, linking the advantages of Indian manufacture with their global market positions.
