Although Facebook has witnessed a very strong growth in India with 8 million users in 2010 to 100 million users this year, the US-based site is still undergoing growing competition in the nation from messaging apps.
Facebook-owned WhatsApp has 40 million active users in India, and competitor chat apps like WeChat and Line are also fighting to augment their numbers in the mobile-first country.
