View of a Xiaomi store in Wuhan city, central Chinas Hubei province, 19 April 2015. Fast-growing Chinese smartphone maker Xiaomi Inc said on Monday (27 April 2015) that it has received investment from the chairman emeritus of Indian conglomerate Tata Sons, in a move to further boost its presence in the Indian market. Ratan Tata has become Xiaomi's newest investor, Li Lei, a PR manager with Xiaomi, told the Global Times Monday, but refused to reveal the financial details and the shareholding structure of the deal. Xiaomi, which was ranked as the fifth biggest smartphone vendor worldwide in the fourth quarter by US market consultancy IDC, was reportedly valued at $45 billion after the company raised $1.1 billion in a December funding round from investors such as Hong Kong-based All-Stars Investment Ltd and Yunfeng Capital, a private equity firm founded by Alibaba's Jack Ma Yun.
