Monthly Mobile subscriber additions 2007 to 2009

Much of the growth in the Q4 08-09 is being credited to Reliance entrance in GSM services and to regional operators spreading their wings with national licences. Reliance GSM notched up of 11.3 million mobile subscribers in the January-March quarter period (creating a world record in ‘the number of GSM subscribers added in a month’ – 5 million subscribers in January ‘09). Whereas Aircel recorded an addition of almost 1 million subscribers in the same duration.
