Emerging markets like India are a "key source" of growth for Facebook, with increasing number of users logging onto the site through handsets, driving up its advertising revenues 76 per cent to $2.34 billion during the December quarter.
Of this, mobile advertising revenue represented about 53 per cent, growing from around 23 per cent a year-ago.
"In all regions, an increasing number of our Daily Active Users (DAUs) are accessing Facebook through mobile devices, with users in Brazil, US and India representing key sources of mobile growth on average during December 2013 as compared to the same period during 2012," Facebook said.
