Considering Moto G 16gb is 200 $ in USA don't expect it to launch it for less than 14000 in india . a 15k pricing is more realistic for the Single sim version dual sim version might be priced higher
Don't be so sure of Motorola G success .. it won't be that easy
why ?
1) local players will be selling 1.7 ghz-2.0 ghz 8 core cortex A7 phones for rs 18-19k some of them will be 4G which is way superior in every aspect than moto G .. lets not talk about the the other extra goodies like 2 gb ram , 1080p screens etc
2) in 14-18k range Local players Will be selling Mtk 6588 1.7 ghz x 4 cortex A7 with mali 450 mp4 gpu ( faster than adreno 305 ) and easily beating moto G performance
Antutu score - around 21k of course with other goodies like 2 gb ram , LArge screens , high resolution ,
There is absolutely no chance Moto G could beat Local players in anyway based on Specs/ PRice at least ..sure not everyone likes cheap chinese phones ( me included)
Let's talk about brands
new entry -
Samsung galaxy Core advance
this features 1.2 GHz dual core krait CPU with adreno 305 .. and has a 4.7 inch display.,the only con with this phone is its low ppi of 200.. galaxy grand had 200 ppi also but it became a massive hit..
1) Samsung Galaxy Win pro
this features a 1.2 ghz cortex a7 quad though the gpu is weaker than moto G adreno 305 this comes with a 1.5 gb ram
considering it is samsung it will be bought by the general masses ( not technically aware people)
2)LG D410
this features the same snapdragon 400 quad core with adreno 305 same as moto G since it has 4.7 inch screen with qhd resolution it will be reasonable to expect pricing of 15-16k
3)Sony Xperia L and M Refresh
This phone was already better in performance than moto g as it has dual core krait.. which trumps quad core cortex a7 in moto G . but they were lacking in other aspects like low resolution slghtly smaller screen , poor screen ... we'll have to wait and see whether sony is going to improve it's screen in 2014 or not ,
see this for more info what sony's line up will be

4) Nokia's Lumia Lineup
lumia 625/630,725/730 with 1 gb ram , dual sim support and bigger screen and resolution
The only missing piece of windows phone till now was dual sim support and low on Ram
Looks like things are about to heat up
Let's Not forget Mototrola is coming back in India After 2 years so Service centers and ASS might be a doubt raiser in People's mind
What i am trying to say is Moto G won't be a clear shot winner . i don't expect it to break a sweat in any of the local players.. in fact Those who Lure Performance over brand will once again pick up local players mobiles .
The purpose of this article is just to let everyone know That though Moto G is A great product , but the competition is also not going to stand still ...
Please feel free to Drop in your opinions whether you liked it or not and
So the Real strengths of Moto G will be
-1 Month early to market
-Top Notch Screen with gorilla Glass and great build
-Google Optimized Operating system ( a Google Company )
P.s - This article does not take into account 8 GB version of Moto G . Yes it might be cheaper but 8 gb on a smartphone without expandable memory is really way below the minimum .
any average user carries around 2-3 gb of songs and some videos easily these days install 1 hd game or click some pics and videos and you are out of memory . 4 gb Xperia M is way better when it comes to storage than 8 gb moto g .
