Rep Power: 3 | Vodafone and Idea have said in separate statements that they are planning to invest as much as USD 2 billion in the Indian market in the next two years. Market leader Airtel has responded to these claims by saying that they themselves are planning to put in eight billion dollars by 2010 in the Indian market. The company is aiming to have a 25 per cent market share. Bharti Group Chairman Sunil Mittal said in a statement: “By 2010, estimates are that India will have a subscriber base of 400-500 million. Bharti strives to retain up to 125 million or 25 per cent of the market.” This kind of investment would be necessary for the company to stay competitive in the sector which now has a presence of British mobile giant Vodafone. |

Rep Power: 1 | If they are aiming for 25 percent them i am sure that they would make to it as Airtel is the only responsible and the best service provider in India. No other company can compete it in terms of after sales services. |

Rep Power: 1 | All the above three players should try and save some money from the above to improve their customer service. I should say that at least Vodafone is far better, but Airtel lacks a lot in terms of customer service, which is pathetic. I am talking about their mobile phone service. |
