Research and Markets: India Mobile Communications - Major Operators 2011

DUBLIN--()--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/903a7a/india_mobile_com) has announced the addition of the "India - Mobile Communications - Major Operators" report to their offering.

The dynamic Indian mobile telephony market has seen a number of important takeovers and mergers, resulting in significant shifts in market share among the players. Three major private players - Hutchison (subsequently acquired by Vodafone), Bharti, and Idea Cellular - emerged from the fray to do battle. The entry of the state-owned enterprises -BSNL and MTNL - as mobile operators saw BSNL in particular throw out a strong challenge to the private operators. And then we have seen the arrival (through the back door) of the CDMA-based services. Among these, Reliance has arrived as a very serious challenger to the GSM operators and now ranks second behind market leader Bharti in terms of subscribers.
