India may be Xiaomi's biggest market outside of China, but the Chinese smartphone maker is reportedly facing some issues. According to a report by SpicyIP, Xiaomi has been served with an injunction that prohibits the sale, advertising, manufacturing and import of devices that infringe upon the telecom giant Ericsson.
The same report says that one of the reasons the injunction was granted was because Xiaomi did not respond to Ericsson's six requests for communications (since July 2014). Interestingly the report ends with a note that the injunction granted by the Delhi High Courts "is not in conformance with either international practice or domestic local law".
Xiaomy has been a remarkable success in the market of China. And it is possible because they make useful but inexpensive gadgets and response quickly to advanced market by copying other company. But this rising company looks to be hard keeping on success at other country like USA. This happening is just start. If they can't resolve patent issue, then they will have to satisfy just their playground. Anyway they are very lucky company because their place which they can ignore license of others is very huge.
