Actaully government should implement Fair "Connection Speed " policy on SIFY... for every minute the customer connection speed goes below 10 kBps, the customer should be paid re 0.10 and a multiple on re 1 for every minute there's no connection.

its nothing like they will cap your account 24/7, its to manage server load during power hours or you can say when most of the users are online, i think its the correct measure to put a cap on unlimited downloads and it can help to solve piracy problem too. I am sure very soon all ISP's will start following it. In UK most of the ISP got this Fair Usage Policy on 8Mbps premium/platinum plans too.
There's a slight diff between what's happening in UK and India. There the ISP's are throttling bit-torrent traffic due to huge lobbying by groups from the music and media industry (IFPI etc). This is their attempt to battle piracy(which will be largely unsuccessful).

But in India they are putting a cap on downloads, they probably don't even know about the throttling mechanisms. Putting a cap on downloads can also prevent legitimate use. For example somebody who watches a lot of Google Tech Talks on youtube or downloads MIT's OCW material. It is unfair on them.

Anyways the battle is on as we speak. Head to torrentfreak . com and see what's happening in the pirate bay trial. The music and movie companies have become a laughing stock with the piratebay members and the entire file-sharing community winning so bad, it's funny! The verdict of this case is most likely to be used as a benchmark around the world. It'll will decide the future of file sharing and also heavily influence the so called "Fair Use Policy"

My take: as bandwidth demands are increasing by the day, putting caps is useless and unfair, ultimately the company that provides real "unlimited" bandwidth will win.

It depends on some areas and my friend is using this for over a year and he had no complaints. So, it might be you are in some bad area or atleast an unlucky area for you
