LeEco bags the Most Promising Smartphone Brand Award by TeleAnalysis
MUMBAI: In less than three months LeEco formally entered into India, the company crossed another milestone in its journey to become top three mobile players in the market. LeEco bagged the “Most Promising Smartphone Brand” award in the TeleAnalysis Customer Satisfaction Survey on 17 March in New Delhi, India.
The award was based on an extensive nationwide survey conducted by TeleAnalysis in the last three months. Sample size was around 12,000 with 3,000 consumers from each zone -east, west, north and south.
The results of the survey proved that consumers appreciated LeEco’s brand as well as its products. And the award is a testimony of the consumers’ faith in LeEco’s products.
This is not just another feather in LeEco’s cap as the company has not only managed to pip ahead of other established brands in this cluttering market, but also been able to generate a loyal and a reasonably large clientele base within a short span of time. The brand recognition is a no mean feat considering that the mobile phone maker entered the Indian market only a couple of months ago.
The “Most Promising Smartphone Brand” award was given to LeEco by Anupam Shrivastava, Chairman and Managing Director, BSNL at the TeleAnalysis Device World 2016 conference held at New Delhi on March 17.
Around 250 people from Telecom industry including high-profile speakers from various smartphone and telecom companies like Samsung, Reliance Jio, Motorola, Micromax, huawei, and Intex as well as from government agencies participated in the TeleAnalysis Device World 2016.
LeEco had recently offered an exchange offer for 2 days on E-commerce site, Flipkart, for buyers to grab on the exciting offers. Of late, LeEco days on E-commerce portal, Flipkart have become blockbusters in the mobile phone industry.
LeEco has launched two phones in India – Le 1s and Le Max. Within only February, LeEco had sold more than 200,000 Le 1s, the flagship killer device in India, making several industry records concerning flash sale quantity and time.
The company is planning to embed different types of contents to its Superphones and offer it to the phone buyers on a platter. This initial “Device+Content” strategy adopted by LeEco in the world’s second largest smartphone market has already garnered rave reviews starting from bloggers and gadgets freaks to common buyers.

year net profit dips 22 per cent to Rs 915cr as revenue softens slightly to Rs 5,137cr.
MUMBAI: Angel One has just earned its wings in style delivering a blockbuster Q4 that proves the brokerage giant is still flying high even in a cautious market. Standalone revenue from operations for the three months ended 31 March 2026 rose sharply to Rs 1,459cr, up from Rs 1,056cr a year ago. Total income stood at Rs 1,467cr. After all expenses, profit before tax came in at Rs 440cr, while net profit for the quarter surged 83 per cent to Rs 320cr (versus Rs 175cr last year). Basic EPS stood at Rs 3.52 and diluted at Rs 3.44.
For the full year ended 31 March 2026, revenue from operations was Rs 5,137cr compared with Rs 5,238cr in FY25. Total income reached Rs 5,152cr. Profit before tax was Rs 1,272cr, and net profit came in at Rs 915cr (down from Rs 1,172cr). Basic EPS was Rs 10.09 (from Rs 13.00) and diluted Rs 9.85 (from Rs 12.68).
Total comprehensive income for the quarter stood at Rs 321cr, while the full-year figure was Rs 913cr.
The strong quarterly performance reflects robust growth in interest income (Rs 455cr) and fees & commission (Rs 1,000cr), even as the full-year numbers moderated amid a softer overall environment. Finance costs rose to Rs 134cr in Q4 (full year Rs 437cr), while employee benefits stood at Rs 244cr for the quarter (full year Rs 1,067cr).
In a year when many brokers felt the pinch of muted market activity, Angel One has delivered a sparkling Q4 that shows its core broking engine is firing on all cylinders. With the books now closed on FY26, the Mumbai-based player has once again demonstrated that consistent execution and a sharp focus on retail participation continue to pay rich dividends in India’s booming capital markets.
