I wasn't able to ask about this standalone trend on the conference call, so I called up the company management for comments today - twice today. Once when they tried to reach me, I was on another call, and then when I contacted them again, I was told they'll call back.
It's not that we didn't try contacting the management for comments. We waited, then did the story, with the intention of updating it when they respond.
And we're doing a separate story with their views on 3G, from the earnings conference call.

What we're showcasing through the chart above (four quarters), since OnMobile is the market leader in India, is that the broader trend in India is flat or negative. That shows that the company had the foresight to go international, and very aggressively so, but also that while it has grown revenues, it hasn't been as profitable. In comparison, their competitors in India haven't been as aggressive.
If you think I'm against OnMobile - you're wrong. Unfortunately, we have only two players to refer to when it comes to VAS in India - OnMobile and Tanla Mobile. That neither of them is advertising with us is not in my control. What I can assure you of is that it wont make a difference even if they do. It also wont make a difference to our content if our existing advertisers decide not to advertise.

In this case, I don't agree with the regulation (I'm FOR online wallets and don't agree with the $500 limit). But I think the RBI is right to force PayPal to comply with the regulation. Now they need to allow online wallets, not just payment gateways.
But looks like you've already made up your mind about me...

In fact, if you're not aware and prepared for regulations, that makes you a rather poor businessman. You'll always be caught out.
