Online trading is a craze among Indians, especially after the trend of booming stock markets. Many banks as well as independent service providers have their online share trading platforms, which people use and make money. Moneycontrol.com, a website from Web18, is one such website, which satisfies the hunger of today’s Indian stock market investor. In the month of November 2007, as a expansion of its online services, they came out with a offering “Markets on Mobile”. This website was a hit among regular investors as it provided them with real time & live market situations, news, expert reviews, market statistics and all the stuff related to stock markets. This application helps people in keeping track of the market while they are on the move; they just need to have a mobile handset with Internet connectivity. The popularity of this service was proved when within first month of its launch engaged 1-lakh users. Now this service is made available on Blackberry handsets, the ultimate weapon of today’s corporate warriors. Popularity of services like Mobile markets and Monster Mobile Job Search indicates that, Indians are making the use of mobile to access services like Internet. This is a good sign for mobile service providers who are planning to offer VAS on their networks. With the Indian government opening up gates for 3G services and mobile handset companies like Nokia (commands the major share of the Indian mobile handset market) making Internet services their high priority, Indian consumers will be offered with lot of VAS on their platter.
