Kevin Wang of IHS Technology claims that Xiaomi sold 14.8 million smartphones in the first quarter of 2016. That the figures includes the smartphones sold outside China as well.

The Xiaomi Q1 smartphone sales figures claimed by Wang (via Android Headlines) are almost identical to last year's, with the firm selling around 14.98 million smartphones in its first quarter. It's worth noting that the Chinese company has yet to announce its first quarter results for 2016. b4x13

Xiaomi has already confirmed that India is the 30 percent local sourcing norms for opening its single brand retail stores.
