Cellphone Cos are like "Indian IT Miracles".
Each one is a Benami shadow of likes of Eriksson/Siemens/Nokia/Motorola.Even 
screws are imported.- mostly from China. Customs do not hold them for Minutes. 
And they were/are being milked for Upfront+Below the Table n000Crores@ time for 
licensing CeNtrallyat Delhi
Remember Pramod Mahajan's Brother fuming and shooting him dead 
-----"You took 5000 crores and did nothing to US?"
Currently there is something bigger happening-all Hush Hush:
Reliance trying to corner huge Spectrum(allowed to be a cOuntry's right by ITU 
rules)and  all the other players crying out loud"You cannot do that".
So they can Cheat the Economy  as they like--Licensed to Kill.{Compare mine --a 
few Welding/Sawing machines not released by Kolkata Customs"Where is it 
written--the address of the Party to be Notified?"And of course I have to be 
penalized for Demurrage that longer.As per  Rules. Nedfi--Oh they are Busy 
Developing Look East!!!    }

[Assam] Indian Cell Phone Myths



As an addendum to my previous response on the matter of the quality of private  
services as in cell-phone, I would be remiss if I did not share what I heard 
during my recent trip to Assam:

 *** That service is uniformly bad thruout Assam. And the worst is the darling 
of the private enterprise
advocates: Reliance; so much so that there was some kind of a 'Bandh' against 
purported Reliance deceit of consumers.

I was loaned a cellphone from a new service provider by a relative, which, 
amazingly worked from my native village at remote Namti, but would not work 
from some of Guahati's  most important localities such as Beltola and Rajgarh.


*** Most surprisingly the cell phone service that generally is acknowledged to 
be the most reliable across Assam is that provided by the Indian Govt. operated 
BSNL, but at a cost. Apparently it is the most expensive of cell phone services.


So much for the conventional wisdom about public vs. private enterprise in 
India, specifically as it relates to cell phone service in Assam.

Cell phone services are available all over India at a very reasonable rate with 
excellent service, however electricity is not.This is because cell phone was 
considered a luxury and hence left to the market forces whereas electricity was 
considered essential and left for the government to  provide.Government always 
messes up whereas fair  market dynamics does not.Utpal
