Mobile services have led to a spectacular growth in the Indian telecom industry. Currently, 12 players are active in this segment. The total
number of wireless subscribers escalated to 261.07 million at the end of March 2008, with a monthly addition of more than 6 million wireless
subscribers. Despite the decreasing ARPU*, the minutes of usage is on a rise, which provides impetus to the mobile services growth in India.

GMPCS services were launched in India
in 1999. These services allow a
subscriber to communicate from any
point on earth through a handheld
terminal. Moreover, the telephone
number remains unchanged,
irrespective of the subscribers location.
Various other services emerged by leveraging the telecom
services industry
Public Mobile Radio Trunked Services
PMRTS have not grown to their expected potential
in India. The high licence fee leaves a very thin
margin for services providers; thereby, inhibiting its
growth. About 31,000 subscribers are currently
availing this service in India from 12 different
operators.
In 1995, radio paging services emerged as apromising segment in India. However, this
segment could not compete with cellular
services in general and SMS technology in
particular, and is currently shrinking. At
present, only four radio paging service
providers are present in the Indian market.
Very Small Aperture Terminals (VSAT)
The market for VSAT services increased by
5.73 percent during the quarter ending in
December 2006, and the segment had a total
subscriber base of 55,070. HCL Comnet is the
largest of the eight players functioning in the
market.

The emergence of private players and new technologies have provided a strong
impetus to the growth of Internet and broadband services. The quality and
penetration of these services have undergone changes, with significant
improvement in the telecom infrastructure. The Internet subscriber base
registered a CAGR of 60 percent for the period 199798 to 200708.
Internet Subscribers: 19982008
BSNL and MTNL caters to more than two-thirds of Internet subscribers in India.
Private players are catching up fast due to increased penetration of Internet and
broadband services in India.
The telecom market will experience high penetration of Internet services with
the support from government policies and introduction of novel technologies in
India.
Broadband services to drive Internet penetration in India
The total no. of Broadband Subscribers of these 13 Service Providers have
increased from 3.1 million to 3.82 million by adding 0.72 million (23.35%)
subscribers in the quarter ending March, 2008.

The telecom subscriber base has witnessed an explosive growth; the additions in year 200-08 registered a growth of
approximately 52 percent over the previous year.
The subscriber base witnessed a CAGR of 42 percent during 200203 to 200708.
The impressive growth in the subscriber base has resulted in a significant increase in teledensity. In 200708, India has a
teledensity of 26.22 percent, as compared to year 2006-07 figure of 18.23 percent, signifying a growth of percent.
Increasing mobile subscriber numbers and low level of teledensity
offers large opportunities to Indian companies
Even though the Indian telecom industry has exceeded a
subscriber base of 200 million, its teledensity is only 18
percent. Thus, the Indian market provides telecom service
providers with a large untapped potential due to the
countrys increasing population and its low teledensity. The
government has plans to raise teledensity to 4045
percent by 2010; thereby, offering greater growth
opportunities for service providers.

India presents a host of opportunities for telecom companies
To reduce their network deployment costs, many service providers are consideringinfrastructure sharing offers the following advantages:
Improved service quality
Increased affordability for customers
Faster roll out of services in rural and remote areas
Significant reduction in initial set up costs
Increased environmental aesthetics
Lower operating costs for service providers
Managed services is another segment that is attracting telecom companies.
On account of the rapidly growing subscriber base, service providers find it difficult
to manage their infrastructure and network management operations. In such
cases, they completely or partially outsource their infrastructure or network
management operations.
Virtual Private Network is a private data network
that provides connectivity within closed user groups via
public telecommunication infrastructure. Competition is
likely to heat up in the VPN segment as DoT has
relaxed the norms for private players.
Enterprise Telecom Services includes key
services, such as voice over Internet protocol (VoIP),
dedicated telecom communication systems, IT
infrastructure enabled unified communication services,
etc. Telecom service providers are increasingly targeting
enterprises by providing dedicated services and is
expected to witness major developments in near future.

Emerging technologies 3G and WiMax to assist in penetration of
telecom services in India
WiMAX has been one of the most significant developments in wireless communication in the recent
past. Since this mode of communication provides network access in inaccessible locations at a speed
of more than 4 Mbps, it is expected to be a major factor in driving telecom services in India, especially
wireless services. Thus, it will lead to the increased use of telecom services, Internet, value-addedservices and enterprise services. WiMAX is expected to accelerate economic growth and assist in
providing better education, healthcare and entertainment services.
It is estimated that India will have 13 million WiMAX subscribers by 2012.
Aircel is the pioneer in WiMAX technology in India.
The state-owned player, BSNL, aims to connect 74,000 villages through WiMAX.
Bharti, Reliance and VSNL have acquired licenses in the 3.3GHz range to utilise the opportunities
offered by this domain.
The Indian government had auctioned the spectrum for 3G services by inviting bids from
domestic as well as foreign players, and creating a competitive environment that offers better
services to consumers in January 2008. Therefore, the 3G spectrum is among the major
investment opportunities and growth drivers of the telecom industry.
The immense potential for 3G is reflected by the 3040 percent annual growth in Value-
Added Services.
Cell phone manufacturers are striving to develop USD 100 priced 3G handsets for the Indian
market.
India expects to replicate its 2G growth in 3G services.
MTNL has soft launched its 3G service and calls it MTNL 3G Jadoo.

The VAS industry was worth USD 632 million in
200708. The industry is estimated to grow by 60
percent in 200809 and become an USD 1,011
million opportunity.
As the government targets to increase rural teledensity
from the current 2 percent to 25 percent by 2012, rural
telephony will require major investments. This
segment will boost the demand for telecom services,
equipment, Internet services and other value-added
services; thereby, offering great market opportunities
for telecom players.
The VAS industry is currently focussing on the entertainment sector, such as the Indian film
industry and cricket; however, there is scope for growth in other avenues as utility-based
services, such as location information and mobile transactions.
