$n the Nepalese $7T market presently there are four ma)or players in the market viG ND7/ CNepal
Telecom T/ N70// and $'Ps. #s of 4 1uly 23 though there are 2? $'Ps altogether in

$'PFs are ,orldlinkC9.9J BroadlinkC.?J and MercantileC9.:J. 'imilarly T/ also has )ust 2%
market share and hence the ma)or data su"scri"ers are !ith Nepal Telecom and N70//. 'imilarly itis found that the ma)or data*internet service medium is !ireless Cappro&. 9;%. Though there is a
niche market for data service through ca"le modem and optical fi"er "ut the market is very limited.
The main competition for NT high speed data services is from N70//Fs Data connect services. #s per
Nepal Telecommunications #uthority CNT# data the data su"scri"ers of N70// are around 2.2
million !hich is almost ==% more than NTFs data su"scri"ers. People feel more speed in NcellFs data
connect than NTFs data service. But the tariff of data connection of N70// varies depending on the
package E on an average it is (s 2.3*MB !hile that of NT is flat (s .3 *MB. Thus the data tariff of
N7ell is almost t!ice that of NT data tariff. +o!ever N70// has only provided data connectivity in
: cities in Nepal !hile plan of NT is to deploy it all over the Nepal. Moreover NT has a potential to

-.1., Economic
0conomy is a ma)or factor !hich affects the "usiness of internet service. #s the national
economy gets improved internet users num"er also get increased. Based on $T and $M>Fs
report it has "een noticed that though Nepal is a least developed country "ut it seen that as the
6DP % increases Ce.g. 'Q 8== to 'Q :22 during 233=233 NepalFs internet users also
got increased C249433 to ;2:?33 i.e. more than dou"le. This is a positive sign for
investment.
-.1./ Socio>cultural
The population of Nepal has "een increasing at a steady up!ard level in recent years. #s per
the census data C!!!.c"s.gov.np in 233 the population !as consisting of 28. million and
in 23 this num"er has increased to 2;.; million. $n terms of population density in 23 the
density has "een noticed as ? people*km2 up from )ust := people*km2in 233. The degree
of ur"aniGation also has "een increased from 8.9% to =% of population during the decade.
'imilarly the population of age group ::9 has "een increased to :4.2% from :2.?% during
that period. #s the ur"an population increases as the youth population increases it tends to
create additional demand for ne! technology ne! computer ne! mo"ile sets and ne!

The keys to success are providing error free lo! do!ntime high average speed throughput data
net!ork all over the country in afforda"le price "y ordinary su"scri"ers. NT should ensure that
optimiGation of mo"ile net!ork C"oth for data and voice is done periodically. $n addition NT should
also take care of customer satisfaction in completely ne! !ays. This means customers should "ecatered not only through conventional customer care centers "ut ne! medium such as internet !e"

*.- 'arketing control mec%anisms
NT already has good e&posure in data services. +o!ever the high speed data connectivity is
some!hat different from lo! data rate service in that su"scri"erFs aspirations from high speed data
service are naturally higher. +ence services such as TK video portals video conferencing !hich
re@uires intensive data throughput must !ork seamlessly. To ensure this some of the critical issues
that NT should take care of are5
The data net!ork should "e closely monitored. This means to generate performance data and
analyGe them day to day so as to ensure that there is no surge in data users at any place or at any
point in time.
There should "e no congestions in data servers and other net!ork elements directly affecting the
data connectivity. NT shall make policies regarding operation and maintenance of any net!ork
elements so that least do!ntime is o"served in case of failure and optimiGe itFs net!ork regularly.
NT shall try its "est to ensure customer satisfaction. This includes proper training of customer
care staffs outsourcing proper information flo! and training of outsourced company employees
taking regular feed"ack from users etc. . >or e&le doing 'M' Pole putting feed"ack "o&es
