The Indian telecommunications industry has evolved over the past five decades. Initially, the industry was ruled by a single player, the Department of Telecommunications (DoT), whose main aim was to provide basic telephony services. After liberalization, as the number of players operating in the industry increased, competition among them also intensified and value creation and innovation became the new mantra of the telecom industry. Almost all telephony products and services were designed keeping in mind the ease of use and affordability to the consumers. Customers became the driving force for new service innovations. The customer is no longer the King in the Indian Telecom industry, he is God!
