rkburra 1 Report post Posted January 15, 2011 80,000 subscribers opt for MNP service in HaryanaMansi Taneja / New Delhi January 15, 2011, 0:52 IST Haryana has seen a significant jump in the number of subscribers requesting mobile number portability (MNP) since the launch of the service in the state on November 24. There have been porting requests of about 140,000, of which 50,000 were rejected. The actual churn was 80,000, according to initial estimates made by the service providers. Haryana has a total subscriber base of 19 million. MNP allows subscribers to change their service providers while retaining their numbers. The facility will be introduced in the rest of the country from January 20. “MNP has become a hit in this initial phase. It is expected to gain momentum. Service providers are offering new schemes to retain clients, but the users are trying the new facility. The actual impact will be known after the all-India launch on January 20,” an executive with one of the operators, which offer services in Haryana said, on condition of anonymity. The view was echoed by other service providers. MNP is expected to increase competition between providers to improve their service. According to an earlier industry estimate, about 25 per cent of mobile users would like to shift to a new service provider. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cdma evdo 1 Report post Posted January 15, 2011 @rajanmehta: Thanks for your efforts in getting the news from the horses mouth ! Something not gelling with those statistics in the news report. The total population of Haryana in 2001 was about 21 million. Even with a decadal growth of about 25%, it should be a maximum of 25 Million in 2011. How come it has 19 Million subscribers ? = Aprox mobile penetration of 79% Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
raccoon 53 Report post Posted January 15, 2011 Operators may downplay the impact of MNP by saying very few subscribers will opt for it, but amongst the people I know, a lot want to change to better operators... esp. those who have been on Airtel for a long time. Only time will tell... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
digitalnirvana 646 Report post Posted January 15, 2011 1.4 M out of 19 M means around 7.5% have tried to switch in early stage, though it says 0.5M were rejected. High churn must say. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ananth001 21 Report post Posted January 15, 2011 Hi all Will MNP finally offer a solution to use imported sets in Tata. Consider the following scenario Since Reliance is bit more liberal, get imported handset of one's choice officially registered in Reliance, with a new / existing number Now if we find that Tata tariff / network is better , port this number to the Tata network, which in effect might allow the non-ruim handset get into the Tata network Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rajanmehta 4,056 Report post Posted January 15, 2011 Unless TATA also registers the handset in its database, how can it work on it's Network? And Tata Programming also needs to be done even if it is registered by TATA as it will be non-ruim based handset.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SumitVerma 187 Report post Posted January 15, 2011 ^ Programming is not the concern here, its all about the foreign MEID acceptance! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sougatadc 358 Report post Posted January 16, 2011 But that will no longer be a TataIndicom Number, I guess. Going back to TataIndicom after 3months' lock in period will again pose the same problem of non-acceptance of foreign MEID. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rkburra 1 Report post Posted January 17, 2011 Really I am not understanding the Analysts and Telcos view about churn rate after MNP. Simply theu are considering only Postpaid customer retention. Why they are not considering Pre-paid customers and multi SIM users. For example I am using CDMA for last Seven Years.I don't want close this number. But I want GSM , so I took a Docomo GSM number considering cost of GSM handset and data rate. Now I am using two mobiles every time . Because I don't want to miss the calls to old CDMA number. Once MNP is roll out, I will shift from CDMA to GSM and start using only one phone. Similar way few of my friends using multi SIMs. There are lot of high ARPU users in pre-paid too as compared to Post paid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
