News Source and Details
From being competitors, rival telecom operators are now talking of co-operation.
The largest CDMA operator in the country, Reliance Communications, and the largest GSM cellular operator, the Bharti Group, are in talks to share about 2,000 cell sites across the country.
The move will enable the two operators to cut down on infrastructure costs drastically, in turn resulting in cheaper tariffs.
This is in line with the decision taken by the Government and the telecom operators to share infrastructure as part of a project called Mobile Operators' Shared Tower (MOST).
According to industry sources, the two companies are discussing the modalities and a final decision may be announced in a few weeks.
