India is now adding close to 10 million daily active internet users every month, the highest rate of addition to the internet community anywhere in the world.

Interestingly, nine out of every ten new internet users are exploring the online content only in their native language, heralding the dominance of a non-English internet user base in the country.

"The volume of new internet users is growing in straight vertical line for the past 18-20 months after the data charges had come down to just about Rs 15-20 per gigabit following the entry of Reliance Jio from a level of as high as Rs 250 per 1 GB data in the past," Rajan Anand, internet technology company Google's vice president (south east Asia and India) said while disclosing these latest data points on Tuesday.
