Also, the predicted 4.8 million customers outside of the US, not subscribed as expected. A palpable 2.83 million customers subscribed to paid service added in the said period. 

The share price of Netflix plunged in the share market by more than 12 %. Hence eyeing the Indian market where mobile usage is the highest in the world, Netflix has made this offer, which was in the pipeline for a long time. 

As per a FICCI-EY 2019 report, Indians spend 30 % of their phone time on entertainment, which also includes 70 % of mobile data. 

Nigel Baptiste of Netflix said that their goal is to get it on as many mobile devices as possible. Further, Nigel said Netflix is already on 1700 + device models.

Whatever may be the reason for Netflix, it is cheaper from today for Indians to watch their favorite movies and series.
