The device maker has also entered into a retail partnership with UniverCell, the electronics retail player in southern India, to market the company's UbiSlate tablets.

"The relationship with UniverCell significantly expands our distribution by adding a significant player from the retail channel to support our tablet sales," Suneet Singh Tuli, chief executive at DataWind, said in a statement.

Until now, DataWind products were primarily available to the customer through e-commerce and direct-to-consumer channels such as TV home-shopping.
