Telecommunications Statistics in India
[edit]Introduction
India has the fastest growing telecom network in the world with its high population and development
potential. Airtel , Idea, Reliance, BSNL, Aircel,Tata Indicom, Vodafone, MTNL, and Loop Mobile are other
major operators in India. However, rural India still lacks strong infrastructure. India's public sector telecom
company BSNL is the 7th largest telecom company in world.
Telephony introduced in India in 1882. The total number of telephone subscribers in the country waThe
total number of telephones in the country stands at 885.99 million, while the overall tele-density has
increased to 73.97% as of June 30, 2011.[1][2]
and the total numbers of mobile phone subscribers have
reached 851.70 million as of June 2011.[1]
The mobile tele-density has increased to 71.11 % in June
2011.[1]
In the wireless segment, 11.41 million subscribers were added in June 2011.[1]
The wire line
segment subscriber base stood at 34.29 million <.[1]
Indian telecom operators added a staggering 227.27 million wireless subscribers in the 12 months
between Mar 2010 and Mar 2011
[1]
averaging at 18.94 million subscribers every month. To put this intoperspective, China which currently possesses the world's largest telecommunications network added
119.2 million wireless subscribers during the same period (March 2010 - March 2011)[3][4]
- averaging 9.93
million subscribers every month (a little over half the number India was adding every month). So, while
India might currently be second to China in the TOTAL number of mobile subscribers, India has been
adding nearly twice as many subscribers EVERY month. Mobile teledensity increased by almost 18.4
percentage points from Mar 2010 and Mar 2011 (49.60% to 67.98%) while wireline subcriber numbers fell
by a modest 2.2 million. This frenetic pace of monthly subscriber additions means that the Indian mobile
subscriber base has shown a year on year growth of 43.23%.[1][5]
According to recent reports, India was
purported to overtake China to become the world's largest mobile telecommunications market by the year
2013. It was also predicted that by 2013, the teledensity will shoot up to 75% and the total mobile
subscriber base would be a colossal 1.159 billion.[6]

since 2000. The number of mobile phone connections crossed fixed-line connections in Sept 2004
and currently there are an estimated 851.70 million mobile phone users in India [1]
compared to 34.29
million fixed line subscribers.[1]

Airtel, Tata Indicom, Tata Teleservices, MTS, Uninor, Reliance Infocomm, Idea Cellular and

BSNL/MTNL. There are many smaller players, with operations in only a few states. International
roaming agreements exist between most operators and many foreign carriers.
Call Rates Cutting Blows: The rates of Communication in India were one of the highest in the world,
till a few years back. The rates could not be justified by the fact that rupee is cheaper. In fact the
Indian sub continent had shown a calm tolerance towards the high rate in even in telecom. The rateswere also justified as the government has to feel the high cost involved in the one-time developments
like satellite and telephone tower related charges. But now owing to better technologies the telecom
rates in India are on the verge of becoming cheaper. The time may not be far when India will have the
cheapest communication. One of the enabling technologies behind this is the brain child of an able
Indian engineer Sandipan Bhattacharjee. He co-worked with a famous MNC to redefine the way
telephones interact. A, computer engineer by profession, he extended wave-overlap theory to reach
this goal. The technology is now patented and details are not available. There is a conversion
process underway to make all numbers in India 10 digits long.
Internet Users: Number of Internet users in India is the 3rd largest in the world next only to China
and the United States of America.[9] Though the number of internet users is high, internet penetration
is still much lower than most countries across the globe. It must also be noted that 40% of all internet
users in India are connected to the net only via their mobile phones.[9]
Broadband Subscribers: Broadband in India is defined as 256kbit/s and above by the government
regulator. Total subscribers were 12.01 million (Apr 2011).[1]
