BANGALORE: Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd (BSNL) will be launching 3G (third generation) mobile services in Karnataka by mid-November this year, according to BSNL general manager (Broadband) Anil Jain. The public services provider has an installed capacity of 200,000 connections which it plans to fill up by the end of this fiscal. |
Since early this year, BSNL has already rolled out 3G services in around 200 cities and towns, mainly in North and East India with an installed capacity of about a million connections. “We have around 70,000 subscribers until now. One of the biggest problems in attracting more customers for 3G services is lack of awareness among the customers and unfound fears about costs,” revealed Jain.“Many people are not aware about the charges – they are quite competitive. For example, we have been offering 35 television channels on the mobile at a subscription of Rs 150 per month. Even the data and voice charges are quite reasonable,” added Jain. |
