Telecom Industry
Objective: Future of 3G Technology in Indian Telecom Sector.
The Indian telecommunications industry is one of the fastest growing in the world and India is
projected to become the second largest telecom market globally by 2010.India added 113.26
million new customers in 2008, the largest globally. In fact, in April 2008, India had already
overtaken the US as the second largest wireless market. To put this growth into perspective, the
country’s cellular base witnessed close to 50 per cent growth in 2008, with an average 9.5
million customers added every month.
According to the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI), the total number of telephone
connections (mobile as well as fixed) had touched 385 million as of December 2008, taking the
telecom penetration to over 33 per cent. This means that one out of every three Indians has a
telephone connection, and telecom companies expect this pace of growth to continue in 2009 as
well.
7
The overall cellular services revenue in India is projected to grow at a CAGR of 18 per cent
from 2008-2012 to exceed US$ 37 billion. Cellular market penetration will rise to 60.7 per cent
from 19.8 per cent in 2007.
The Indian telecommunications industry is on a growth trajectory with the GSM operators
adding a record 9.3 million new subscribers in January 2009, taking the total user base to 267.5
million, according to the data released by COAI.
India is the fourth largest telecom market in Asia after China, Japan and South Korea. The
Indian telecom network is the eighth largest in the world and the second largest among emerging
economies. At current levels, telecom intensiveness of Indian economy measured as the ratio of
telecom revenues to GDP is 2.1 percent as compared with over 2.8 percent in developed
economies.
Indian telecom sector has undergone a major process of transformation through significant
policy reforms. The reforms began in 1980s with telecom equipment manufacturing being
opened for private sector and were later followed by National Telecom Policy (NTP) in
1994 and NTP'1999.
8
• "NTP 1999 brought in the third generations
of reforms in the Indian telecommunications
sector.
• India is one of the fastest growing telecom
markets in the world with an addition of
more than 6 million connections per month.
FDI inflow in Indian Telecom sector is the
highest among all sectors. It is emerging as
telecom manufacturing hub. Year 2007 was
declared as "Year of Broadband" in India.
It is projected that the industry will generate revenues worth US$ 43 billion in 2009-10.
Rural India had 76.65 million fixed and Wireless in Local Loop (WLL) connections and 551,064
Village Public Telephones (VPT) as on September 2008. Therefore, 92 per cent of the villages in
India have been covered by the VPTs. The target of 80 million rural connections by 2010 is
likely to be met during 2008 itself. Universal Service Obligation (USO) subsidy support scheme
is also being used for sharing wireless infrastructure in rural areas with around 18,000 towers by
2010.
The Indian rural market is going to be the next big thing for wireless telecom providers. With the
tele-density in rural areas being still about 10 per cent against the national average of about 21
per cent, there seems to be huge untapped potential for mobile phone penetration in rural India.
The government also plans an investment of US$ 2 billion, during 2008 to 2009, for the
development of around 100,000 community service centers in rural India to provide broadband
connectivity.
Major Players
There are three types of players in telecom services:
• -State owned companies (BSNL and MTNL)
• -Private Indian owned companies (Reliance Infocomm, Tata Teleservices,)
• -Foreign invested companies (Hutchison-Essar, Bharti Tele-Ventures,
Escotel, Idea Cellular, BPL Mobile, Spice Communications)

What is 3G?
3G (Third Generation) is the latest wireless technology. It is also known as UMTS (Universal
Mobile Telecommunications System), an improvement over 2G (Second Generation) providing
wireless access to the data and information to the users from anywhere and anytime. It is the
latest mobile technology and in fact it is described by Cellular (2004) as being a generic name
for the most of mobile technologies.
3G cellular phones were first launched in Japan in October 2001. This 3G phone was designed
so users would be able to surf the Internet, view pictures of the people they are talking to, watch
movies and listen to music on their handsets .
10
Mobile telephony allowed us to talk on the move. The internet turned raw data into helpful
services that people found easy to use. Now, these two technologies are converging to create
third generation mobile services.
In simple terms, third generation (3G) services combine high speed mobile access with Internet
Protocol (IP)-based services. But this doesn’t just mean fast mobile connection to the world wide
web. Rather, whole new ways to communicate, access information, conduct business, learn and
be entertained - liberated from slow, cumbersome equipment and immovable points of access. It
will enhance and extend mobility in many areas of our lives.
Evolution from 2G to 3G
GSM evolution to 3G
11
What will 3G mean to users?
"Mobility" will be offered with many services that we currently regard as "fixed" – indeed,
Mobile operators believes that mobility will become the norm for many communication services.
We’ll be able to make video calls to the office and surf the internet, or play interactive games
with friends at home - wherever we may be. But 3G is not just about applications that require
high speed data rates. It’s about convenience and speed of access.
12
There are various technology comes under various forms of services like under 1G its AMPS,
2G its CDMA, TDMA, GSM, PDC & 3G its W-CDMA, CDMA-2000,TD-SCDMA

3G helps to simultaneously transfer both voice data (a telephone call) and non-voice data (such
as downloading information, exchanging e-mail, and instant messaging. The highlight of 3G is
video telephony. 4G technology stands to be the future standard of wireless devices.
Limitations of 2G
• Designed mainly for telephony application
• Circuit-switched
14
• Too many standards globally
15
• Can avail the benefits of video calling.
• Clarity is better and the facility can be enjoyed as long as both of are using the 3G
technology.
• Access any site on the Internet by using your phone as a modem for computer or laptop
and mail the important documents.
• Downloading games and songs is much faster with this technology
• Can be also used for favorite search engines to find information on news headlines, get
information about the evening weather.
• Provide with the data transmission speed of up to 2Mbps when the users are using the
phone on stationary mode.
• Provides significantly faster data transfer rates of connectivity and increased networking
and most importantly the resistance to noise.
• Increased the bit rate thus enabling the service providers to provide high speed internet
facilities, increased call volumes and host of the multimedia applications to their
customers.
• All these services can be provided to the customers on the basis of the amount of data
they transmit and not on the time for which they use the service thus making the services
cheaper.
• Beneficiary to the service providers as well as the intermediaries like the content
providers and the media houses who are looking for an additional platform market their
products. Basically it holds three way benefits to all the parties involved.
• Improved performance over 2G, including:
Support of a wide range of services with maximum bit rates above 2 Mbps
and the possibility for multiple parallel services on one connection;
16
Support of asynchronous inter-base-station operation;
USER BENEFITS
Although 3G was successfully introduced to users across the world, some issues are debated by
3G providers and users:
• Cost of 3G phones

COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS BETWEEN
RELIANCE COMMUNICATIONS , AIRTEL AND
BSNL REGARDING 3G SERVICES IN INDIA
3. BSNL:- 16%
As we can say from the above data that Airtel is aving maximum customer market share or
we can say the largest customer base in number of people who are using Airtel after that in
second number there is Reliance communications and in third number government owned
BSNL
If 3G services are rolled out in India then we can say the competition between Airtel and
Reliance communication is more rather then comparing to BSNL
The investment done buy the private companies to get the 3G spectrum is the huge sum of
amount and they want to recover it from the customer it happens only when the
organization having the large customer base but in case of BSNL its a government owned
company its not provide services for the profits they want that the customer must use the
service which is provided buy the BSNL.
19
1. Bharti Airtel:- 31.5%
2. BSNL:- 9.2%
3. Reliance Communications:-11.5%
• The subscribers would be offered a plethora of services like live TV, high-speed
mobile broadband and movie download through 3G services.
20
• 3G ready GSM sim
• 3G broadband service through their latest Reliance NetConnect Broadband+
Evdo (3G).
• Video calling
• Mobile tv with 69 channels
• Offer services with other handsets providers.
Spectrum policy in India has been the victim of slow decision-making, which has left the
country lagging behind many others.
The delay in auction over three years has deprived Indian subscribers of the benefits of high-
speed mobile data services available to over 300 million subscribers residing in over 125
countries with significant concentration around the Americas, Europe, and South East Asian
countries.
This is also an opportunity for Indian software companies to join hands with service providers to
develop applications that will meet the needs of the Indian mobile user. At a later stage, these
could be rolled out into other emerging markets..
3G in India is initially expected to provide additional spectrum for voice services. This would
pave the way for data usage on mobile phones. This is vital as operators are focusing on
customer acquisition as well as ‘sticky offerings’ to prevent churn. 3G enables better VAS
services due to the higher levels of bandwidth that it can accommodate. The technology is
expected to drive data card adoption. Currently, Tata Indicom and Reliance are the only players
in the data card segment. With more players coming into the market, sales are expected to boom
with competitive prices and attractive schemes.
Poor broadband penetration, a large untapped rural market, and the challenge of providing high
bandwidth in rural areas using landlines are all factors favoring a 3G rollout. With 3G, network
operators can offer wireless broadband services. Moreover, many operators are starved of
spectrum and as 3G offers four to five times the voice capacity of 2G spectrum, it is a cost-
effective tool to deliver voice. Services beyond voice and text can be offered; 3G offers a
platform which can offer true multimedia services.
21
The technology will be critical for operators in enabling the differentiation of their service
portfolio, by providing a far richer service experience than is currently available—particularly in
the deployment of audio-visual services.
The fundamental driver for 3G in India is to serve the country’s demand for broadband services.
From a technological point of view, in areas where no fixed-line infrastructure exists, deploying
a mobile network is much cheaper and it can be rolled out a lot faster than wired infrastructure.

Roll-out strategies
Starting in February 2009, BSNL and MTNL—the state-run operators who were pre-awarded
3G licenses—have rolled out 3G services in 70 (BSNL) and two (MTNL) cities nationwide
respectively. The private telecom operators are in the process of planning their 3G network
infrastructure and awaiting final approval from the DOT auction to start rolling out their
networks; they are ready to go fully operational within six months of spectrum allocation.
Despite the hype around 3G, MTNL and BSNL have attracted a few thousand subscribers for
these services. Lack of attractive applications and content, the high monthly charges and the
anticipation of private players entering the 3G arena soon are the likely reasons for the low
uptake of 3G services. Meanwhile, Frost & Sullivan estimates that the number of 3G subscribers
will be around 7-8 million by the end of FY 2009-10.
In the first year of 3G operations, the operators are expecting 3G subscribers to pay about five
times the current 2/2.5G tariffs. 3G-enabled handsets and data modems for laptops are also likely
to be expensive. This is a steep increase and will target only niche demographics, but in the
coming three-four years the operators will see higher subscriber volumes and better operational
efficiencies and consequently the prices will drop to attract a wider audience. The challenge for
operators will be to offer wide coverage (including roaming), high quality service and attractive
22
content in the initial years to sustain high-paying subscribers long enough to reach the tipping
point of growth.
Market opportunity
According to the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI), in India,
the 3G subscriber base is expected to hit 90 million by 2013, accounting for 12% of the overall
wireless user base. By 2013, 3G service revenues are expected to generate $15.8 billion,
accounting for a share of 46% in overall wireless service revenue. Due to the 52% contribution
made by the replacement market, annual sales of 3G devices are projected to reach 81.3 million
by 2013.
There will also be an increase in the share of non-voice services, including data card access, and
short messaging service. The Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) from these services will rise
from the present 9% to nearly 23%.
3G would be initially deployed as a voice technology. The ARPU is not expected to rise
significantly in the initial years. The overall impact on ARPU will be determined by
pricing/bundling strategies that operators adopt. In some markets, where 3G services have
already been provided, operators have adopted a penetration pricing strategy, aimed at building a
strong base of 3G users by pricing 3G services attractively.
Indian mobile operators already generate significant revenues from non-SMS data services and
3G will see new, exciting data services available to the Indian public. It’s worth noting that India
already has a dynamic mobile content industry.
However, some experts think that apart from data cards, there are no other killer applications in
mobile data services. In the enterprise, e-mail may be a major driver for this market. As far as
retail is concerned, video streaming could be a driver. This depends upon the pricing of video
clips and the download speeds that 3G can guarantee. 3G services are at a nascent phase with
only state owned companies offering 3G services in limited pockets—so real price cuts cannot
be seen
23
A combination of better services, innovative applications, and smart handset bundling coupled
with right pricing can attract a large base of users to 3G. Besides, many Indian customers already
have 3G-enabled devices. These people will be the first movers.
In order for the customers to know and get the feel of 3G, MTNL is initially offering a trial pack
for 15 days. The customer can get a first hand feel of exactly what 3G is all about. They can
experience the service, and MTNL is sure that after getting the feel of the same the customers
would not like to go back to 2/2.5G data services.
To improve overall service experience, operators will need to allocate spectrum for 3G to
provide improved voice services. However, this is unlikely to impact the ability to provide richer
VAS services. The eventual cost of deploying 3G networks may deter operators from rolling out
3G networks to the entire existing customer base, meaning that some segments will not have
immediate access to 3G. The cost of deploying the networks may impact the pricing strategies
for service packages offered to the market, with operators adopting different strategies to attract
new subscribers and cover their investment costs
Future of 3G
The good news for mobile users is that now 3G has been uploaded in all the latest handsets from
the leading manufacturers including Sony Ericsson, Samsung, LG, Nokia and Motorola. In
addition, a new technology called HSDPA has been upgraded with the 3G system which works
faster than 3G. The latest gadgets are well-equipped with power-packed features, enabling you to
communicate and enjoy loads of fun.
Today 2G is booming, one of the big reasons is the low-priced handsets. This, however, is not
the case with 3G. Opportunities are big, but we will have to make it happen.
The success of 3G will depend on innovative business models. The most certainly needed thing
is favorable regulations in terms of spectrum fees. It is creation and competition that are the two
mantras for the success of 3G in India. There is a need for creating an enthusiasm of technology
among the consumers, and 3G portals need not be the only goal of the operators.”
The big challenge set before us is the affordability of the 3G devices. Educating the customer on
3G is another challenge. 3G is most certainly going to be exciting, but also challenging. We need
the infrastructural support and the handset, too, would be at an affordable price. The stakeholders
should come together in order to see some good development. There is an opportunity to
transform the society, which is possible as long as all of us can work together.”
One of the advantages of 3G network is that it would give better voice clarity. It will shift the
Internet largely to the mobile space and we can ensure a 3G success
A matter of concern before us is the kind of bidding that would take place. It is equally
challenging to attract consumers to 3G. The reason why ARPUs are on the decline is because the
24
consumers are not able to see value for money. We need to concentrate more on customers. A
proper working strategy will lead to the success of 3G services.”
3G spectrums has been provided to GSM players like BSNL, MTNL, Bharti, and Vodafone and
some international companies have also shown interest to carry out an interface check on a non-
commercial basis ahead of the start of 3G mobile services.
Apart from PSU majors, spectrum for carrying out 3G trials has been given to all those who have
applied under the National Frequency Allocation Plan on the 2.1 GHz band. GSM players
operate on 900 MHz and 1,800 MHz, while CDMA players operate on 800 MHz.
While Tatas have welcomed Trai’s Rs 1,400-crore (Rs 14 billion) base price for a nationwide
rollout of 3G services, the rest of the players find the price too exorbitant.
Bharti-Airtel is disappointed with the pricing as they were expecting it to be Rs 300-400 crore
(Rs 3-4 billion). The reserve price is a disincentive for telecom companies in India. Bharti has
appealed to lower the prices especially for rural penetration.
In addition to the 3G network infrastructure security, end to end security is offered when
application frameworks such as IMS are accessed, although this is not strictly a 3G property.
Japan was the first country to introduce 3G on a large commercial scale. In 2005, about 40 per
cent of subscribers used only 3G networks. It is expected that during 2006 the subscribers would
move from 2G to 3G and upgrade to the next 3.5 G level.
The success of 3G in Japan also shows that video telephony was the killer application for 3G
networks. Downloading music was the biggest draw in 3G services.
25
For infrastructure providers 3G will be a value-add during slowdown, as they would get to put in
a lot of new developments. Layout of next generation networks that are 3G compatible will help
in better manageability of services over the networks. Even service providers believe that 3G
would make the entire mobility space much more accessible. The broadband connection, as they
have not reached the set target, will also benefit with 3G coming to India.
3G will help service providers manage their existing infrastructure better and remain competitive
in a mobile number portability (MNP) regime. It will also generate a more addressable market to
the GSM service providers. They can go back to their existing customer base and provide them
with enhanced data services
3G will not only make its presence felt in cities and towns but also bring in better and faster
networks to rural India.
In the years to come 3G would make a lot of difference in making business models more
innovative. 3G and WiMax will help solve the problem of low broadband penetration in India to
a great extent. It is high time the government realizes the need and use of 3G. In a fast growing
economy these technologies have the power to change the development roadmap of the country.
CHALLENGES
26
• Product Presentation / Placement
• Traffic Building
• Layout
Looking Ahead…..
BSNL and MTNL are very differently placed in comparison to other private players. It is not
yet known when 3G auctions will happen and which companies will be in the spectrum run.
With a huge amount of investment only to acquire license, a lot of other costs would be
involved when it comes to network building and implementation.
But the high costs will lead to new services making its way into the market, especially the urban
areas. “Unlike 2G, in 3G one has to come up with very innovative applications and tariff plans.
The penetration level of 3G, however, is still uncertain. The new technology comes with costs
attached, and while the upper-middle class business professionals might be able to utilize these
services, a major part of our population is still far from the levels of affordability that these
services ask for.
With a per capita income (national average) of as low as $950 per annum (Rs 38,000
approximately), access to these technologies shall remain for the select few. Rs 8,000, the
minimum amount required for purchasing a 3G handset, is a luxury that most can't afford. Also,
other gadgets such as laptops, which can use 3G-run broadband access, are yet to make inroads
among the large population.
Even as most handset manufacturers see a tremendous growth opportunity in the realm of 3G-
enabled mobiles, it is certain that price will play a key role in deciding the fate of the new
technology. To tackle this concern, mobile phone manufacturers are making efforts to come up
with phones as cheap as Rs 3,500, against the currently available minimum price of over Rs
8,000. Mobile makers in India are also expecting prices to dip, and thus are contemplating
aggressive plans to come up with affordable handsets in this category.
Analysts say that 3G first needs to be popular with the middle class segment if it is to bring the
much talked about “broadband revolution”. For such kind of change to take place, the price of
the handset and the services will play a crucial role.
About 15-20% mobile phones in India are already 3G-enabled, but they have to be made
affordable. The availability of reasonably priced phones has already made many experts rework
their estimates of the size of the 3G market to grow from the present 40-70 mn to 100-150 mn by
2012.
3G is one of the most cost effective ways to deliver mobile broadband to the masses. Expectedly
3G can single-handedly achieve far more in terms of bridging the digital divide than any other
27
way of mobile internet connection introduced by the government.
Because of its higher voice capacity, 3G could also facilitate the delivery of far more cost-
effective voice services. However, this will happen only if operators do not have to pay
exorbitant prices for 3G spectrum. An auction of 3G spectrum could lead to irresponsible
bidding resulting in high costs and tariffs, which would completely negate the tremendous
capacity advantage that 3G has to offer.
Auctions also have another downside - by their very nature, they entail a selection amongst
bidders, which would result in discrimination between existing cellular operators as it would
deny some operators their legitimate expectation of evolving to 3G. Also, it would not be in the
national interest if the 3G policy ended up being disruptive, creating uncertainties, leaving the
survivors with the winners' curse and others with the prospect of gradual collapse of businesses.
Therefore, the answer to the question raised is that, yes, 3G has a future in India and that it is
relevant and important, but the key to the success of 3G will lie in its price, that is, if it has to
become a mass service. 3G did not take off in the west because of the exorbitant prices attached
to its spectrum, which made the service unaffordable and restricted to a niche market.
The 3G service can also help to alleviate the severe spectrum crunch that is currently being
experienced by various operators, especially those in the big cities and metros. There simply is
not enough 2G spectrum that can fuel the aggressive growth in services.
Also the 3G spectrum has a voice capacity that is four-five times higher than the 2G spectrum.
This could actually play a crucial role in helping to overcome the limited availability of the 2G
spectrum. It may be helpful in achieving a national telecom target of 250 million by 2009 and
500 million by 2010.
3G networks enable network operators to offer users a wider range of more advanced services
while achieving greater network capacity through improved spectral efficiency.
