Owing to falling 4G data prices, a significant 40 percent of Indians prefer to watch advertisement videos on their mobile phones over other media, finds a survey. The survey, by mobile advertisement technology and data analytics company MoMagic Technologies, showed that most of the mobile advertisements were viewed while playing games and watching videos on platforms such as Youtube.
Over 28 percent of the respondents watch mobile ads for winning credits in games, followed by ads while shopping online at 25.5 percent. “What we are witnessing is an increasing migration of video consumption including video ads by users in Tier I and II cities because of economical 4G data plans in a highly competitive mobile operators market which is pushing costs and inversely offering higher data limit packages,” Arun Gupta, CEO and Founder, MoMagic Technologies said in a statement.
