SexyGurl 0 Report post Posted September 5, 2005 Airtel has been something too smart (!). Something secret ? They're marching ahead quite powerfully in the mobile segment atleast. + Sunil Mittal seems to have learnt the political game from Reliance. Reliance's entire FWP business is looming under a big threat (Dayanidhi Maran's generosity to Sunil Miital .... or well, it's more likely to be Sunil Mittal's "generosity" to Dayanidhi Maran -- see the DoT diktat on FWP services of Reliance and Tata) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Saurav 22 Report post Posted September 5, 2005 More than good luck of Airtel it's bad luck of Reliance. No fresh investment or expansion plans are being anounced. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
