Xiaomi India has just crossed $1 Billion revenue (about Rs. 7000 Crore) mark in 2016, it's a huge milestone not just for Mi India but for the smartphone industry in general. India has been one of the fastest growing smartphone markets in the world, and within just 2 short years Xiaomi has become one of the market leaders in the space.

But that's not all. Manu Kumar Jain, Xiaomi India head added further that in 2016 the company also crossed the 2 million smartphones sale mark for the first time in the third quarter which was a 150% YoY growth compared to Q3 2015.
