How many Internet users are there in India?

There are over 451 million active internet users in India every month, IAMAI data showed.

Out of these, only 33 percent are females.

The female internet users’ population is half of the 258 million male Internet users, and the bias is more evident in rural India. Among States, Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Delhi have a higher proportion of female Internet users.

In India, nearly 1/3rd of users accessed Internet for ‘more than one hour’ in urban India, where as in rural India, a similar proportion of users accessed Internet for 15-30 minutes. With better connectivity, quality of service and affordability of mobile Internet, there could be an increase in rural consumers spending more time on the internet in future, the report stated.
