Abstract IoT is an emerging technology that creates a massive network of things communicating with one another. It encompasses a broad set of technologies, hardware and software stacks. Data, humans, devices and communication are critical elements of an IoT ecosystem. For a developing country such as India, which has quite limited technology penetration at the national level, an efficient architecture for IoT needs to be based on present technology advances, capabilities that provide affordable and sustainable solution, and entrepreneurial and social value. Smart city is an important concept for the development of any nation. It is crucial for government of India to offer different services to its citizens and IoT helps significantly to achieve this purpose. It will be possible to communicate transparently and seamlessly with large number of homogeneous and heterogeneous systems, while having selected access to data for designing numerous digital services. The primary purpose of this research paper is to study the role of IoT in development of Indian smart cities, understand the India IoT policy, find out the key drives and advantages of IoT based smart city and identify the consumer preferences and demographics of Indian citizens who prefer IoT based smart city solutions.
