Mr. Debasis Chatterji
CEO
Netxcell Limited
Recap of 2010
2010 overall had been a year with many upheavals on all fronts be it politics or industry. As far as telecom sector is concerned, 2010 has been quite challenging as we saw the launch of many new operators, new services were launched and all this leading to stiff tariff war. But there have been many positive and growth oriented incidents as well – the brighter side of 2010 includes launch of 3G in Indian market and Mobile Number Portability (MNP) which would not only offer the latest technology to the mobile subscribers but will also give liberty to switch over incase the subscriber is not satisfied with the existing service provider. So I can say that the key highlight of 2010 was that it made the subscriber the King with wide array of choices being available.
Expectations from 2011
With such massive developments in 2010, the telecom service providers will now need to be highly proactive in 2011 to meet the market dynamics. Overall as far as 2011 is concerned, it will be time to wait & watch not just for telecom companies but also on the political front at the state and central level. Though, as an industry representative, I would certainly hope for more stability in the business and political ecosystem so that 2011 can be a year of growth for all.
