China has 400 million internet users, accounts for 1/3rd of China’s population
Number of broadband users in China: 346 million
Mobile internet users: 233 million

Where as for India

India has anywhere from 45 million to 50 million users, accounts for about 5% of our population (so we have a lot of room for growth, good news in my opinion)
Number of broadband users: 8 million
Of the 500+ million mobile users, 25 million users have paid for their data account, 55-65 million users use the free data services provided by the operator.
Mobile internet users: 2 million active users (access the net at least once a month from their mobile)
