Number of Cards in Circulation in India Reached 456.8 Mln in 2012, According to Timetric Report Published at MarketPublishers.com
London, UK (PRWEB) November 28, 2013 -- During 2008-2012, the cards and payments industry in India witnessed considerable growth. During the review period, the card payments channel recorded nearly 27.1% CAGR, and by end-2012 amounted to 456.8 million cards in circulation and was worth USD 363 billion. Growth in the total number of cards in India is spurred by such factors as increasing popularity of on-line shopping, changing lifestyle demographics and rising disposable incomes in the country. The number of ATMs in India grew from 43,651 in 2008 to 114,014 in 2012, registering a 27.13% CAGR during 2008-2012. Meanwhile, the number of installed point-of-sale (POS) terminals witnessed a 17.21% CAGR during 2008-2012 and grew to 845,653.
To maximise expansion in each of the card categories, banks in India tend to segment their customers, focusing, in particular, on female customers – a large customer base that commonly manages family expenses and budgets in the country. In the conditions of constantly intensifying competition in the domestic cards and payments market, banks and other institutions involved are creating marketing and pricing strategies to attract more clients. Common strategies utilised by banks include, among others, discounts for retail stores, cashbacks, increased daily limits for cash withdrawals, reward points, etc.
