Indian devices(cell phones) -why not pouplar

looking around we can see many individuals carrying cell phones. i see maximum people carrying foreign companies mobiles. then suddenly a question came to my mind
why Indian mobile devices are not popular compared to foreign companies mobile devices? 
from Wikipedia i checked out that there are companies like  Lava, Videocon, Karbonn and Micromax (many more)that make cell phones but still Indian phones are very much used by Indian people. most of the times i see these phones in hands of daily wage workers or BPL people . why everyone(even  Indian) is not using Indian cellular phones?
if we see the foreign mobile devices, they are really advanced ,reliable and equipped   with latest technology and come mostly in high prices. and of-course on indian television too we can see lots of advertisements of foreign phones in very attractive and eye-catching way.whereas, indian companies don't advertise much and if they do, it is not as good as foreign companies do.even technology wise Indian phones lack somewhere.so, this maybe the reason for non-popularity of Indian phones in Indian markets itself. the two points that come out to us on less pouplarity of indian phones are:-
1.lack of latest technology
2. lack of good advertisements
to see further why these reasons exist.let us see that how many people in India are in field of technology?how many of them work in indian companies?
the answer to first question would be that yes, there are people in field of technology (studying) but answer to question two is that there are very few people who work in Indian companies. students generally shift to developed countries for better earnings and better living conditions  after completing their education or work in MNC's here. so very few are left for indian companies .so due to this ,development isn't done  much here and foreign or companies of developed countries take advantage and hence make the phones with latest technologies , gain popularity and sell at high prices. whereas Indian companies and mobile devices both remain unpopular .the only and only solution to this is that there should be technological developments in indian mobile phone companies and this is not possible without our contribution. yes, instead of going to other countries we should stay here in our motherland  and contribute our knowledge and talents in indian companies . the best example is in front of our eyes, the Chinese ! they make phones in very small companies and sell it in the indian markets. 2-3 years back indian markets were flooded with these cell phones but slowly their influence is decreasing due to security issues ( these phones don't have "‘IMEI’ number. IMEI number is the unique identity of a cell phone set that is used by the network to identify the mobile phone"  line  taken from http://www.indiabuzzing.com) so, dear young minds if you have interest in technology its time to rise the level  the indian companies above foreign companies  by contributing in indian companies after gaining lots of knowledge.and decrease the influence of foreign cellular phones in indian markets!
good day!
