The company is also launching inbuilt payment systems in their mobiles. They have partnered with Visa and TranServe to bring Udio wallet to the phones for seamless transactions.
The company is launching a new service called 'Around' as well which will be built into all their smartphones. This service will allow users to call cabs, book tickets for several services, order food etc. They have tied up Ixigo, Zomato, Ola and others for this. "We want to be the number one service company in the country," Said Micromax's co-founder Rahul Sharma.
Sharma added that they will launch a new e-store and ensure 100 percent local production under 'Make in India'.
Micromax has lost a lot of ground in India last year. Samsung overtook the company in 2015 to gain the top spot in the market with 28 percent share in the last quarter. There has been trouble at top management end for the company as well. Recently, their CEO Vineet Taneja quit after chairman Sanjay Kapoor left the company in August 2015.
