Google is planning to increase its revenue from its applications including its Android operating system.And also setting its sights on the masses in developing countries like India, which has 670 million cellphone subscribers and has been adding about 18 million a month recently. Now Google will become a significant player in India's wireless industry as several Indian handset makers release low-cost devices that include Android operating system in coming months. Most of the initial Google-powered phones in India from global handset makers such as Motorola and HTC cost upward of $400 a high price for a market where 42 percent of the population of 1.2 billion people earns less than $1.25 a day. To target India's vast middle class, Google is banking largely on a crop of inexperienced Indian smartphone manufacturers including Micromax Informatics, Spice Mobility and Olive Telecom to make Android phones in the $150 range, and eventually the sub-$100 level. Android devices also work best on wireless networks capable of "3G" speeds. Indian carriers are just now in the process of upgrading to that level. According to the company's calculations the arrival of cheaper mobile phones on the market will result in more services being delivered to the final customers free of charge which will increase sales.
By this way Google will be able to make more money from Android supported phones. Plans are also being made by Google to introduce more applications to its gadgets. From the company said that the demand for the Android has ben increasing recently but at a slow rate.
