However semaphore systems suffered from the need for skilled operators and the expensive towers at intervals of ten to thirty kilometers . As a result of competition from the electrical telegraph, the last commercial semaphore line was abandoned in 1880. A replica of one of Chappe'ssemaphore towers in Nalba

  16. Reasons for growth > low tariffs >falling handset prices

  17. PROBLEM FACED  • . • The bottlenecks for ' Indian Telecom Industry ' are: >Slow reform process. >Low penetration. >Service providers bears huge initial cost to make inroads and achieving break-even is difficult. >Lack of infrastructure in semi-rural and rural areas, which makes it difficult to make inroads into this market segment as service providers have to incur a huge initial fixed cost. >Huge initial investments. >Limited spectrum availability and interconnection charges between the private and state operators.

  18. Rural Telecom Market – an emerging market • According to numbers compiled by the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India As on September 2007, out of the 209 million mobile users in the entire country, 43 million were in rural areas. • Rural India will wrest 40 percent of new telecom market • India’s rural telecom connectivity is poised for explosive growth in the next five to 10 years, grabbing a 40 percent share of the new market • The government will roll out new incentives for mobile networks in rural India. • It’s also planned that the ultra-low cost handset of approximately Rs.840 ($20) to the market with built-in subsidies, lifetime validity and minimal maintenance costs have promoted mobile usage in remote areas.

  19. Reasons for rural inclination • rural areas has now become the hot spot for private telecom operators. • Nearly 75 per cent of the mobile users in the villages are now owned by private operators as cellular phones catch the imagination of rural consumers. Until now, state-owned Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd was known to be the only significant rural telecom operator in the country. • Analysts said that the share of rural telecom consumers will continue to increase as operators have initiated an aggressive roll-out plan to cover remote areas of the country. This is primarily driven by a slump in the growth rate of mobile user base in the metro and urban areas. • According to the data released by the Cellular Operators Association of India Circle C and Circle B States such as Bihar, Kerala, Madhya Pradesh and Punjab are showing better growth rates compared to the metros. Therefore, most of the mobile operators are investing heavily in setting up infrastructure in these circles. • The telecom regulator has suggested a number of initiatives to make mobile connection attractive, including lower entry cost to make it more affordable.

  20. Corporate views on telecom sector ! • In a hi-tech market like telecom, Schumpeter's view that competition through innovation is more important than price holds significance. Technology advancements, lower costs and competition translate this into benefits for the consumer. Moreover, competition drives innovation." - PoonamMadanSarmah, Head of Research, Genesis PR. • "We are looking at making the phone a more useful product than just an instrument to exchange voices. We want to be identified as a great value-added service provider." - HaritNagpal, Vice President (Corporate Marketing), Vodafone

  21. Telecom tops in employment growth • According to estimates of the World Bank, employment in the telecommunications sector has grown by 33 per cent since 1994, the highest growth among all the sectors in the services industry. • While the Word Bank numbers, released in its recent report on `India's Services Revolution,' head-hunters and recruiters say that telecom is still the favorite among higher level professionals. • Thanks to the aggressive rollout of a countrywide network, operators like Reliance Infocom, Tata Teleservices and Bharti have gone on a hiring overdrive. • From a career point of view, telecom sector continues to offer growth and new learning as the sector matures and the business opportunities expand. • These Telecom companies require large number of telecom engineers, telecom software engineers and Telecom test engineers in the functional areas of Embedded software development, Analog Digital engineering technology, Telecom networking, Protocol, Chip Design Engineering, VLSI Software Testing. In the Mumbai Telecom companies there are Software Engineer jobs, Telecom software Engineers jobs, Quality / Test Engineer jobs, Product Manager job openings, Network Security Systems Specialist vacancies, NMS Engineer jobs, Network Management specialists, Managers, UNIX Network Systems Operations Engineers, NMS Administrator jobs, Cisco Specialist Software Engineer etc. • Taking a cue from the demand for telecom professionals, top educational institutions have begun specialized courses in telecommunication management. Symbiosis in Pune and Amity in Delhi are examples of such institutions. Even state-owned Mahanagar Telephone Nigam Ltd (MTNL) has set up a training facility for telecom engineers in Mumbai.

  22. List of top 30 Telecom companies in India :

  23. BhartiAirtel is one of the most valued company of India. It is also the leading telecom provider in India.  Reliance Communications follows Airtel in market capitalization. Interestingly the same order holds good for the total number of subscribers these telecom companies has. • Bharti has a subscriber base of 91.1 million and added 2.7 million subscribers in Feb 2009. Reliance added 3.3 million new subscribers in FEB 2009 to take the total to 69.6 million. Reliance rolled out its GSM operations late last year following which there was a surge in the number of new subscribers. It also added more subscribers than Airtel in a month. • Following MTNL is the list of other telecom providers in infrastructure, equipment and value added services. Vodafone-Essar which has 66 million subscribers is not listed on the Indian Bourses. • BSNL is also not listed and that is the reason why it is not in the list. If listed it could be one of the top companies. There is a lot of things happening around BSNL’s IPO even before the recession started. Now, that the recession has started the IPO plans were postponed. But, BSNL will dilute 10% stake sooner than later. • *Market valuations as on 20 MAR 2009. Source (ETIG)
