I often say that if you can succeed in telecom in India, you can succeed in any business, because the Indian telecom sector has seen some of the toughest Indian and multinational competition, relatively complex regulation, and fast changing technology that can turn yesterday's powerful companies into today's losers rendering billions of dollars of investments worthless!
- Mukund Govind Rajan, President-AUSPI, speaking at Globalcomm
There has been a huge influx of multi-nationals into the Telecom sector, post liberalization and this trend is only expected to continue with the government increasing the FDI cap to 74%. India is now the fastest growing Telecom market in the world, adding about 7 million subscribers each month. With a tele-density of 23%, there still exists a huge growth potential when compared with advanced economies touting tele-densities in the range of 70 - 80%
The primary challenges of this sector are:
Constant need of updating knowledge, skills, and attitudes.
The rising need for trained professionals as also the training need.
Need for domain experts as well as experts in non-technological areas like customer care, etc.
