    Reliance Mobile introduces tariff plan for GSM prepaid customers

    Category » Business Posted On Friday, June 05, 2009

    Bhopal, June 5:

    Reliance Communications, the Number 1 mobile operator of MPCG has introduced a new tariff plan for its GSM prepaid customers under which for only Rs 45 per month they can make calls anywhere in India for just Rs 0.50.

    The tariff voucher is available for Rs 16 with a validity of 60 days, said Santanu Chakrabarty, Regional Head, MP, CG and Orissa circles, Reliance Communications. Once the voucher is activated Rs 1.50 per day will be deducted from the core balance of the customers, which comes to Rs 45 over a month. Under the plan for the first minute the calls will be charged at the arte of Rs 1 for local calls and Rs 1.50 for STD calls. However, from the second minute onwards the call rate will be only Rs 0.50 for any call anywhere in India. This is the best tariff plan available in MP for Reliance GM prepaid customers, he added.

    Seems exact copy of Virgin. Still it is a good move. Lets hope it becomes available in all circle.

    u r missing some lines while reading

    Virgin doesn;t reqire any special reacharge(save Rs16)

    Virgin doen't deduct balanced if u havn't made any call? (save Rs1.5/day)

    Virgin chages every call at rs0.5 after first call, and rcom charging is based on second minute of call.

    so rcom is looting subsciber,

    virgin's offerr is too better than rcom

    moreover their target is to add more and more customers into GSM,,all good schemes are with GSM..

    why they are not treating call from cdma to gsm as onnett?....barring in few postpaid addon pack.

    cant you people understand that they want less additions in cdma

    i agree that they want most cust to add into gsm. bcoz they want to be top most player in each circle. IN TELECOM GAME IS IN NUMBER ONLY.

    call are not treated as on net to earn more reuenue. and to introduce cug in gsm soon.

    reliancee is one step closer towards closing their cdma network...they will use cdma only for data i guess..

    stay away from cdma voice as early as possible..migrate to other GSM operator before reliance gives you a shocker. Now a days they dont even entertain network complains of cdma post paid customer. They have made their intentions clear.

    i am against ur statements.. the only reason for slow down in their activities is that they find diffcult to handle both networks with less man power.. hope they will find a way to run smoothly..

    Dont forget my dear.

    Operator were asking to make few relaxation for MERGER AND AQUASITION in telecom industry.

    and govt. Dot. TRAI are working on rules for intra circle mergeq

    so we cant neglect the option that rcmda may be sold to other party who are interested to buy(currently MTS is interested to buy existing operator's infrasture).

    One more possibility is MVNO.

    LETS WAIT DONT BE HURRY TO SHIFT TO GSM..

    Regrding on-net mins, what the service providers can do is, they can play a small recorded voice mentioning the service provider of the person who is being called. This will give ample time for the caller to understand what the charge of the call might be(in case he has on-net free or not)

    Other possibility is that one toll free number is given. whr u can call or sms the derired num for whch u want to know operator name.

    e.g. 5xxxx. will be number. u can sms mobile number and reply comes as operator nane. circle name etc.

    or u can call and punch the number. and it will prompt service provider nane

    i saw a banner today in mumbai that virgin mobile has also started the unlimited calls between virgin to virgin mobile. seems the fight between the telecom players benefits the customers :punk:

    yes. i too seen this poster. detail mention was first 3min will be charged at re1/min thereafter 200min free for the day.

    This seems better than previous yo yo pack whch was giving only 700min/mnth. at rs28.

    Good inititive to attract youth.

    thats good.

    but MTNLGaruda uses landline type numbering (8 digit preceeded by STD code - same as initital R-CDMA). so how roaming is going to work, are they supposed to allot temporary local no.s.

    govt has given permission to allow roaming to mtnl and bsnl cdma service.soon cdma service will have 10digit no starting with 9. so initially they wont follow cheating procedure as done by rcom. Mtnl will contiue to use same 8digit number. and not allocating any local number. rcom was given license for only WLL and rcom was following illegal way of call forwarding to avail roaming service.

    ALL THAT GLITTERS IS NOT GOLD.

    And if I am right ramesh, even Idea is a new operator in Tamil Nadu. So dont expect the smoothest of rides. If I were to choose I would still stick on to RGSM, because of the value they offer in terms of schemes etc. Moreover I have not used Idea. I prefer a known "devil"(RGSM) rather than an unknown "angel"(IDEA)

    why u r fearing of unknown things. try new operator network is doesnt require too much investmest

    NEW DELHI: Leading GSM operators Bharti Airtel and Vodafone Essar have added 2.8 million and 2.7 million subscribers in April, continuing their

    respective growth momentum. The second-largest mobile operator Reliance Communications added just over 2-million subscribers last month, according to data released by telecom regulator Trai on Monday.

    GSM operator Aircel added about 1.1 million new subscribers in April taking its total subscriber base to 19.5 million. Tata Teleservices, a CDMA operator, added about 0.6 million new users in the given month taking its subscriber base to 35.7 million. Idea Cellular and Spice Communications together added a notch over 1-million subscribers in April. State-owned telco MTNL added 47,045 new subscribers in April.

    RCOM, the country’s largest telecom operator on CDMA technology platform, had launched GSM-based services in January with schemes providing free talk time up to Rs 900 and this resulted in its subscriber numbers surging between January-March. The free scheme was taken away by March-end, which resulted in subscriber additions falling in April.

    RCOM had outperformed the industry in these three months, it added 5-million new users in January and over 3-million new subscribers in February and March. In comparison, the largest mobile operator, Bharti, added 2.7 million new users each in January and February 2009 and 2.8 million in March.

    RCOM now has a mobile subscriber base of 74.8 million and Vodafone Essar's total subscriber base stands at 71.5 million, while Bharti Airtel leads with 96.7 million total subscribers. Vodafone Essar also saw a drop of about 0.07 million users in its monthly additions in April and the telco added just over 2.7-million subscribers as against 2.84 million in March.

    With this, Bharti Airtel regained the number one position in terms of subscriber additions by a few thousand users as it increased its customer base by 2.8-million users in April.

    In March 2009, Vodafone Essar had beaten Bharti Airtel in monthly subscriber additions for the first time. Trai also said that India's mobile base had crossed the 400-million mark in April, inching close to the target of 500-million users by 2010, set by the Department of Telecom (DoT).

    The total wireless subscriber base now stands at 403.66 million, while the total telecom base, which includes that of landline is 441.47 million, Trai added. But, the number of new mobile connections added in April saw a 23% drop compared with 15.64 million new additions in the previous month.

    The total wireless subscribers (GSM, CDMA and wireless local loop-fixed base) stood at 403.66 million with addition of 11.90 million subscribers in April, the statement said.

    Additions to the number of wireless subscribers also dipped after reporting a record 15.64 million new connections in March.

    Dear Sadikk.. I think u have knocked the Right door,

    As u r selling handset, then u must grow in ur biz, and MVNO and MNP are giving u opportunity to start ur own biz.

    Initally u Must visit one Analyst or Consulatant in Telecom field, He will guide u how to START Biz and RUN it.

    He must know about some solution which u can't imagine of it.

    AND I THINK MVNO is desined for such target subsciber only.

    First step is decide whether ur parent company will be RCOM or TATA or MTNL or MTS.

    Get Negotiation quote, Invest small amt in CAPEX

    Start convering ur existing h/s customer to MVNO company, then provide good support,

    Good support gives u Mouth publicity.

    Then go for BRAND image, brand expansion.

    U will need Good people working for u at each satge.

    About Funding, u can apporch TO VENTURE capitalist.

    MY WISH ARE ALWAY WITH U.
