The number of Internet users in India grew to 46 million in September 2007, up from 32.2 million in September 2006, according to the "Internet in India [I Cube] Report 2007," published by the Internet and Mobile Association of India (IAMAI) and IMRB International.

In a country of more than 1.1 billion, that means there is still a long way to go. Subho Ray, president of the IAMAI.

Increased computer literacy is driving user growth, the groups said. The number of people who knew how to use a computer unaided was 65 million as of September 2007, versus 15.8 million in 2000. [eMarketer]
