Top Indian mobile manufacturer, Micromax Informatics Limited, the maker of Micromax line of Android smart phones and tablets, has launched its first set of smart phones based on Windows 8.1. These Windows based smartphones are called Canvas Win W092 and Canvas Win W121. Micromax has become the first Indian brand to offer Windows Phone to its customers. Micromax had hit paydirt with Android operating system in its previous mobiles becoming the 2nd largest retailer of Android smart phones after the market leader Samsung.
Micromax's popularity stems from the fact that it offers top configuration Android smart phones to the Indian users at a budget price.

With this announcement, Indian mid range consumers can expect more budget friendly smartphones and tablets in future as Micromax established its partnership with Microsoft. Micromax had announced its tieup with Microsoft at Microsoft’s BUILD conference held in San Francisco in April 2014.
