Services are focused on mobile devices and have massive scope. We will be developing newer markets and offering well integrated products. The response thus far has been tremendous."
Explaining reasons for launching the service, GETIT said that in an increasingly mobile-centric world, access to information and on-the-go has never been more critical. Mobile technology continues to simplify lives by connecting people across globe and hence there was a need for such service.
