There is a good news for all mobile subscriber especially for travellers who travel more from one state to other from time to time. Now,mobile users need not have to pay any extra money while travelling outside their home network. Carriers charge a higher rate for roaming and there are no uniform roaming charges as they differ from one operator to another. Let see what the reports are saying:
According to the reports:
Telecom companies may stop roaming charges if the government accepts the report submitted by a high-level panel. The panel constituted by the Department of Telecom (DoT) to make recommendations on strategic issues related to licensing matters, has recommended to the government to consider the entire country as a single service area or four separate zones instead of the existing 22 telecom circles.
At present, around 10 per cent of the revenue of telecom companies comes from roaming charges. As per rules, a mobile service provider can charge a maximum of Rs 1.40 per minute for a local call for a mobile user travelling outside his home network, while for STD calls, the limit is Rs 2.40 per minute for all outgoing and Rs 1.75 per minute for all incoming calls, irrespective of the distance. After the tariff war began in 2009, several companies have reduced their roaming charges but now, there will be no roaming charges at all..........
HAPPY CALLING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The rumar has been floating in market since a long period of time, I guess somewhere around mid 2010, but still there is no such announcement from any of the Telecom company,
ReplyDeleteAccording to me this should be in market around mid 2012 as the market will soon reach to the saturation level and than all the companies will try to get maximum from the market based on their performance on the services provided..
Once again RELIANCE COMMUNICATION may come up with a breaking news after its "500/- per month for 6 months for a mobile and a connection", "No incoming call charges" and "1paisa per second" plans which provided lead to reliance for some time
All of these are milestones for the industry....
