commonman 228 Report post Posted June 4, 2009 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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.
