INDUSTRY PROFILE
The telecom industry has been divided into two major segments, that is, fixed and
wireless cellular services for this report. Besides, internet services, VAS, PMRTS
and VSAT also have been discussed in brief in the report.
In todays information age, the telecommunication industry has a vital role to
play. Considered as the backbone of industrial and economic development, the
industry has been aiding delivery of voice and data services at rapidly increasing
speeds, and thus, has been revolutionizing human communication.
Although the Indian telecom industry is one of the fastest-growing industries in
the world, the current teledensity or telecom penetration is extremely low when
compared with global standards. Indias teledensity of 36.98% in FY09 is
amongst the lowest in the world. Further, the urban teledensity is over 80%, while
rural teledensity is less than 20%, and this gap is increasing. As majority of thepopulation resides in rural areas, it is important that the government takes steps to
improve rural teledensity. No doubt the government has taken certain policy
initiatives, which include the creation of the Universal Service Obligation Fund,
for improving rural telephony. These measures are expected to improve the rural
tele-density and bridge the rural-urban gap in tele-density.

Introduction - Evolution
Indian telecom sector is more than 165 years old. Telecommunications was first
introduced in India in 1851 when the first operational land lines were laid by the
government near Kolkata (then Calcutta), although telephone services were
formally introduced in India much later in 1881. Further, in 1883, telephone
services were merged with the postal system. In 1947, after India attained
independence, all foreign telecommunication companies were nationalised to form
the Posts, Telephone and Telegraph (PTT), a body that was governed by theMinistry of Communication. The Indian telecom sector was entirely under
government ownership until 1984, when the private sector was allowed in
telecommunication equipment manufacturing only. The government concretized
its earlier efforts towards developing R&D in the sector by setting up an
autonomous body Centre for Development of Telematics (C-DOT) in 1984 to
develop state-of-the-art telecommunication technology to meet the growing needs
of the Indian telecommunication network. The actual evolution of the industry
started after the Government separated the Department of Post and Telegraph in
1985 by setting up the Department of Posts and the Department of
Telecommunications (DoT).

network in the world after China. It is second largest wireless network in the world. Over 18 million connections are being added every month. 2 Department of Telecommunications The target of 600 million telephones by the end of 11th five year plan has
been achieved in
February'10 itself. Wireless telephones are increasing at faster rate. The share of wireless
telephones as on 31st
December 2010 is 95.54% of the total phones. The share of private sector in total telephone is 84.60%. Overall tele-density has reached 66.17%. Urban tele-density is about 148%,
whereas rural teledensity
Is at 31.22% which is also steadily increasing. Broadband connections increased to 10.74 million by November, 2010.
Growth of Telecom Sector
The opening of the sector has not only led to rapid growth but also benefited the
consumers through low tariffs as a result of intense competition. Telecom sector
has witnessed a continuous rising trend in the total number of telephone
subscribers. From a mere 22.81 million telephone subscribers in 1999, the number
increased to 846.33 million at the end of March, 2011. The total number of
telephones stands at 926.55 million at the end of December'11 showing addition of
80.22 million during the period from April to December'11. Wireless telephone
connections have contributed to this growth as their number rose from 165.09

million in 2007 to 811.60 million in March, 2011 and 893.86 million at the end of
December'11. The wire line connections have however, declined from 40.77
million in 2007 to 34.73 million In March, 2011 and 32.69 million in December'11.
Role in Indias Development
Employment
The Indian telecommunication industry employs over 400,000 direct employees
and about 85% of these employees are from government-owned companies. The
ratio of number of subscribers to employees, an indication of efficiency and
profitability, is much higher for private companies than for government
companies.

Foreign direct investment has been one of the major contributors in the growth of
the Indian economy, and therefore, the need for higher FDI is felt across sectors in
the Indian economy. The telecom sector has played a crucial role in attracting FDI
in India. The share of telecom sector in the total FDI inflows in India has gone up
to 10% in FY09 as compared with just 3% in FY05.The telecom sector requires
huge investments for its expansion as it is capital-intensive and FDI plays a vital
role in meeting the fund requirements for expansion of the telecom sector.
Telecom accounts for almost 10% of the total FDI inflows in the country and has
been the third-largest sector to attract FDI in India in the post-liberalization era
The Indian telecom industry has been an attractive avenue for foreign investorsover the years. As per DIPP figures, the cumulative FDI inflow during August
1991 to June 2009 period, in the telecommunication sector amounted to US$ 113
bn. FDI calculation takes into account radio paging, cellular mobile and basic
telephone services in the telecommunication sector.

N I T T E M E E N A K S H I I N S T I T U T E O F T E C H N O L O G Y B A N G A L O R E Page 7
In the 2004-05 Budget, the government raised the FDI limit from 49% to 74% in
the telecom services segment subject to retention of local management control.
According to the new norms, 26% share out of the 74% should be held by an
Indian company or an Indian citizen with Indian management. Further, 100% FDI
is permitted in telecom manufacturing, category I infrastructure providers, ISPs
without gateway, call centres and IT-enabled services. Further, direct or indirect
FDI up to 74% is permitted subject to licensing and security requirements for ISPs
with gateways, radio paging operators and category II infrastructure providers.
The relaxation in FDI norms has attracted many foreign telecom majors to the
sector. The presence of foreign players has not only encouraged faster
infrastructure development and up gradation but also has opened up the domestic
industry to foreign competition. Since 2004, there has been a large inflow of FDI
in the sector. During 2004-05 and 2005-06, a period during which the FDI norms
were relaxed, the FDI inflow grew by an astounding 300% to US$ 624 million in
2005-06 from merely US$ 125 million in 2004-05. The inflow of FDI has
provided tremendous impetus to the sector in the past few years and the
attractiveness of the sector has kept the FDI inflows growing steadily. During
FY09 the FDI in the telecom sector at US$ 2,558 million was 103% higher than
that seen in FY08 at US$ 1,261 million. Further, the FDI in the sector has already
reached US$ 2010 million for a six month period of FY10 (Apr-Sep 09) and is
expected to surpass the total FDI for FY09.
Growth of IT-ITES and Financial Sector: India has entered the league of
countries with the most-advanced telecommunication infrastructure after the
industry was deregulated. Furthermore, deregulation has stimulated Indias
economic growth through industry growth and through rise in investments. It is
evident that a well-developed communication sector improves access to social

networks, lowers transaction costs, increases economic opportunities, widens
markets, and provides better access to information, healthcare and educational
services. The growth in Indian telecom sector has been concomitant with overall
growth in GDP, government revenue, employment et al. Besides,
telecommunication has increased efficiency, reduced transaction costs, attracted
investments and has created new opportunities for business and employment. The
telecom sector has been instrumental in creating jobs for a vast pool of talented
and knowledge professionals in the IT and ITES-BPO industry, which thrives on
reliable telecommunication infrastructure. India has become an important
outsourcing destination for the world and the boom in this sector also has
transformed Indias economic dynamics. The evolution of telecom sector has
brought about a revolutionary change in the way some businesses operate.
Increasing Affordability of Handsets: The phenomenal growth in the Indian
telecom industry was predominantly aided by the meteoric rise in wireless
subscribers, which encouraged mobile handset manufacturers to enter the market
and to cater to the growing demand. Further, the manufacturers introduced lower-
priced handsets with add-on facilities to cater to the increasing number of
subscribers from different strata of the society. Now even entry-level handsets
come with features like coloured display and FM radio. Thus, the falling handset
prices and the add-on features have triggered growth of the Indian telecom
industry.
Prepaid Cards Bring in More Subscribers: In the late nineties, India was
introduced to prepaid cards, which was yet another milestone for the wireless
sector. Prepaid cards lured more subscribers into the industry besides lowering the
credit risk of service providers due to its upfront payment concept. Prepaid cards
were quite a phenomenon among first-time users who wanted to control their bills

and students who had limited resources but greater need to be connected. Pre-paid
cards greatly helped the cellular market to grow rapidly and cater to the untapped
market. Further, the introduction of innovative schemes like recharge coupons of
smaller denominations and life time incoming free cards has led to an exponential
growth in the subscriber base.
Introduction of Calling Party Pays (CPP): The CPP regime was introduced in
India in 2003 and under this regime, the calling party who initiated the call was to
bear the entire cost of the call. This regime came to be applicable for mobile to
mobile calls as well as fixed line to mobile calls. So far India had followed the
Receiving Party Pays (RPP) system where the subscriber used to pay for incoming
calls from both mobile as well as fixed line networks. Shifting to the CPP system
has greatly fuelled the subscriber growth in the sector.
Changing Demographic Profile: The changing demographic profile of India has
also played an important role in subscriber growth. The changed profile is
characterized by a large young population, a burgeoning middle class with
growing disposable income, urbanization, increasing literacy levels and higher
adaptability to technology. These new features have multiplied the need to be
connected always and to own a wireless phone and therefore, in present times
mobiles are perceived as a utility rather than a luxury.
3G Telecom Services
The explosive growth of the telecom industry in India is being followed by the
urge to move towards better technology and the next level of service delivery.
While the last 5 years have been transformational for Indian telecom industry, the
next few years look even more exciting. BWA will overcome the key hindrance of

ROW in India, while 3G has the potential to make the mobile phone, a ubiquitous
device for accessing the internet. The new opportunities opened through new
services such as 3G mobile, VAS, Wi-MAX, M-Commerce, Mobile banking and
Broadband wireless services will put emphasis on deeper penetration into urban
and rural areas.
Mobile Number Portability (MNP)
MNP allows any subscriber to change his service provider without changing his
mobile phone number.
The much-awaited mobile number portability was launched on 25th November
2010 at Haryana and on January 20, 2011 in entire country. With the rollout of
MNP, mobile telecom service providers will be forced to improve quality of their
service to avoid loss of subscribers.
Value Added Services (VAS)
The mobile value added services include, text or SMS, menu based services,
downloading of music or ring tones, mobile TV, video, streaming, sophisticated m-
commerce applications etc. Prior to 2008, a majority of VAS revenues were
attributable to SMS's. However, recent trends indicate that this mix is evolving.
With greater penetration of new services, availability of relatively inexpensive
feature rich handsets and consumer education, VAS other than SMS is gaining
importance. It is further expected that 3G and BWA will raise hopes for an
increase in demand of data and content based services. Such as cloud computing,
remote surveillance, fleet management, telematics and retail supply chain. Mobile
VAS such as mobile TV, mobile banking and mobile governance will witness a
higher demand in future.

BSNL gave me a general outlook of the branch and its working. He also explained me thegrowth and development of the branch.
BSNL has a high financial power, as it is earning huge profits since several years.Came to know that there is a transparency in communication at all levels; there are
barriers for making every one aware of training and development.
Performance standards are fixed at corporate level like committee consistent,representatives of both management and employees.
Self-initiation for training by the employees is always encouraged.

GENERAL INTRODUCTION:
CUSTOMER
CUSTOMER IS THE KINGTHE MODERN MANTRA
A customer is the most important visitor on our premises.
He is not dependent on us. We are dependent on him.
He is not an interruption in our work.
He is purpose of it, He is not an outsider to our business.
He is part of it we are not doing him a favor by serving him.
He is doing us a favor by giving an opportunity to do so
Individual buyer: The most commonly thought of situation is that of an individual
making a purchase with little or no influence from other. However, in some cases a
number of people can jointly involve in a purchasing decision. At time an entire
family makes a decision to purchase a commodity.
Some purchases involve individual decisions and some collective efforts are
needed. The study of consumer behavior has lot of implication on marketing of
goods and services and buying and decision has to be made out.
Marketing is a new way of thinking about how companies and other organizations
can develop beneficial exchanges with target customers who seeking to satisfy
need or want. Marketing is the process of choosing market to be in, products to
offer prices to change, distributors to use and messages to be sent.

Customer satisfaction
Whether thebuyer is satisfied after purchase depends on the offers performance in
relation to the buyers expectations. In general, satisfaction is a persons feelings of
pleasure of disappointment resulting from comparing a products perceived
performance (or outcome) in relation to his or her expectations, If the performance
falls short of expectations, the customers is dissatisfied. If the performance
matches the expectations, the customer is satisfied. If the performance exceeds
expectations, the customer is highly satisfied or delighted.
The link between customer satisfaction and customer loyalty is not
proportional. Suppose customer satisfaction is rated on a scale from one to five. At
a very low level of customer satisfaction (level One), customers are likely to
abandon the company and even bad-mouth it. At levels two to four, customers are
fairly satisfied but still find it easy to switch when a better offer comes along. At
level five, the customer is very likely to repurchase and even spread good word of
mouth about the company. High satisfaction or delight creates an emotional bond
with the brand or company, not just a rational preference. Xeroxs senior
management found out that its Completely satisfied customers are six times
more likely to repurchase Xerox products over the following 18 months than its
very satisfied customers.

economic theories, on the nation that individual act rationally to maximize their
benefits in the purchase of goods and services.

Background of the study consumer satisfaction
Consumer satisfaction measures the gap between customer expectations
offers provided by the company. If a customer of a product or dealer services
exceeds his/her expectations, then the amount will exceed and equals the
satisfaction, conversely, if the person experience falls short of expectation. The
short fall will be equal to dissatisfaction, thus customer satisfaction is the art of
managing customers expectations and experience.

Many companies now are fighting for shares of flat or fading markets. Thusthe costs of attracting customer are raising, in fact it costs five times as much to
attract new customers and it does to keep the current customer satisfied. The
satisfied customers make repeat purchases and they tell others about the quality of
the product and experiences of consumption of the product. Smart companies give
services and delight the customers by delivering more than they promise were
made. This concept is accepted by universally, that is satisfaction of customer is
the ultimate benchmark of organization success.
Simply running complaint and suggestions systems may not give the company a
full picture of customer satisfaction and dissatisfaction. The worlds biggest
business has set up systems for regularly tracking customer satisfaction by
conducting surveys .The customer satisfaction survey is the management discover
1990ssince 1992. Bain &Co. have conducting survey in 15 developed countries to
find out how managers rank management techniques in terms of their impact to the
bottom line. In the year customer satisfaction survey ranked high with 79 percent

Costs less to serve than the new customers because transactions are routinized.
High lights:
One satisfied customer in 10 years would bring 100 more. Acquiring new customers costs 5 times than to retain the current customers. So, customer retention must be given greater importance.
Companys assets have little value without the existence of customers. The key
company taste therefore is to attract and retain customers. Customers are attracted
through competitively superior offerings and retained through better customer
service. So, planning for the customer service is very crucial.

Value of Customer Satisfaction
By Andrew Mennie, General Manager Gain Communications EMEA
What is the connection between customer satisfaction and the bottom line? Ever
wondered how much customer satisfaction is worth? We all know and accept
that it is a strategic goal for all organizations involved in the delivery of
customer service. Yet in all my experience as a professional in this arena,
I have never come across a customer services director who could articulate the
financial value of customer satisfaction to their business. Conversely, I have
never met a customer service Director Who wasnt measured on it. How Bizarre.
Big business is happy to measure it but doesnt know what its worth. One of the
reasons for the difficulty in making the connections is the Intangibility of
customer churn. That is to say, how dissatisfied does Customers have to be before
they leave and sign with the competition? What Might be an in tolerable

experience for one customer may well exceed all Expectations of another. Then
theres competition. What if there isnt any? Before deregulation how concerned
were the large utility companies with Customer satisfaction or British Telecom
comes to that interesting therefore that the telecoms sector is where war is being
waged on Customer Satisfaction Could it that be high customer satisfaction
attracts new customers and helps retain existing ones? Sounds like that could be
worth something.
There is no question that customer satisfaction is difficult to measure, but why
Is measurement so essential?
As a student I opened my first bank as an adult with a major high streetBank. They attracted me with their offer of a $ 10 deposit to the account. I
Stayed with them through the four years of university, through the gradually
Increasing overdraft, the unintentional forays beyond the overdraft limit, the lost
ATM cards, the replacement cheque books, the minimal deposits, the Regular
and very small withdrawals. Except for the penalty charges for the Overdraft
excursions the bank made very little money out of me, and in fact incurred
untold cost in maintaining me as a student customer.
All that efforts are clearly with the goal of keeping me in my earning years and
reaping back their investment. In fact I felt consciously loyal to them at that point
and even recognize that it was my turn to pay them back. So why was their
customer service so poor once I became a full-time employee? I stayed with them
for several years using them for mortgage service, investment and insurances but
eventually churned to one of the first telephone banks. I have been with them a
few years now and every time I phone them they are aware of my recent
communications with them, request that I have made and they dont try to sell an
unwanted insurance policy at the end of every call.

Individual firms have discovered that increasing levels of customer satisfaction can
be kinked to customer loyalty and profits. Customers seek out products and
producers that are best able to satisfy their requirements. A product does not need
to be rated highest by customers on all dimensions, only on those they think are
important.
