So, is it another good news for mobile customers ?

Public sector mobile service provider in Delhi and Mumbai has announced a 1 second call rate of half paisa to its own network and 1 paisa to other network! This makes 30 paise per minute to its own network and 60 paise to another network!

Most probably, this will start some more price war among other operators. Then customers would be really benefited. But now a days, it is frequently observed call disconnect, network congestion in almost all operators. Instead of decreasing prices alone, mobile service providers should try to increase quality of service of mobile networks too.

Here is the news:-

NEW DELHI: State-owned telecom MTNL on Tuesday raised the bar for competitive tariffs by announcing a half paise-per-second plan for mobile calls on its 2G as well as 3G network in Delhi and Mumbai circles. For calls made to other networks, the tariff is 1 paise-per-second, MTNL chairman and managing director RSP Sinha said.
Under the per second billing plans which will become effective from December 2, subscribers will pay one paise per second for local and STD calls across the country on all networks, he said. MTNL, which also offers 3G services, will also offer video calls at one paise per second across the country. It has also slashed the local SMS rate to 25 paise per SMS, although the STD SMS rates remain Re 1 per SMS. Source.
