Macro economics

 

The Indian economy has emerged from the slowdown caused by the financial crises witnessed in FY 07-08 to register a growth of 8.6 per cent in FY 10-11. Service sector remains the fastest growing sector in the economy with growth pegged at 8.9 per cent, which is lagging only slightly behind China’s service sector growth of 10.5 per cent. A look at the global service sector industry shows that India compares well even with the top 12 developed countries which have the highest overall GDP in the world. In terms of exports, India is moving towards a servicesled export growth. In the first half of 2010-11, services exports grew 27.4 per cent despite a dip caused by the global crisis which led to a fall in the contribution of merchandise trade to GDP.

 

Service sector now contributes 55.2 per cent of India’s GDP and has been growing in the range of 10 per cent annually. In terms of employment, although the primary sector is the dominant employer followed by the services sector, the share of the services sector has been increasing over the years.

 

The global economic and financial crisis has had a dampening effect on cross border FDI flows and in order to maintain earlier levels of foreign investment, it is imperative to retain India’s competitiveness in this sector.

The year witnessed further dramatic drop in telecom tariffs. With the launch of services by several new operators in the year, the total number of operators in the market now stands at 15.

Internet and Broadband

 

Internet subscribers in India grew moderately to 17.90 million and broadband subscribers to 11.87 million as on March 31, 2011.

 

Telecom Infrastructure

 

The demand for Telecom infrastructure in India is driven by the robust growth in the mobile Industry. Also, the need for telecom infrastructure is necessitated by the focus on growth in the rural areas for increasing coverage in new markets by mobile operators.

 

During the last 2 years, wireless subscriber base growth has led to significant increase in demand for towers space. Tower industry has seen an accelerated growth rate of22 per cent in last 2 years. This growth was supported by network expansion by existing operators, entry of new operators, and favourable regulatory framework for tower sharing. 2G network rollout during next year (2011-12) is expected to be in line with rollout during 2010-11 with operators completing their network coverage. New operators are expected to expand their network footprint while incumbent players will add network capacity, with some additional coverage.

 

In Financial year 2010-11, 3G and BWA auctions were completed by the Government, leading to additional demand for towers.

Industry Trends

 

Sustained High Growth

 

India continues to be the fastest growing telecom market in the world in terms of the total number of new subscriber additions. This exponential growth phase is expected to last for few more years before the rate of growth starts leveling off.

 

3G

 

3G services are finally surfacing on the Indian telecom horizon, giving way to 5 MHz of extra spectrum to 9 successful operators which will help in improving the inconsistent voice network and additionally provide a plethora of data applications like live mobile TV, video calling, video and music streaming, video conferencing, and much more. No operator won Pan India spectrum, Reliance is amongstthe highest to bag 13 circles, including 3 metro circles.

 

Mobile Number Portability (MNP)

 

As far as MNP is concerned, with 15 operators in the market, and now with the integration of 3G, there is enough choice for customers in terms of choosing a quality network provider. Dynamics like MNP will kick in and will further challenge the life cycle of the consumers. Operators will have to focus on better segmentation of market and retention of existing base.

 

Innovations in internet technology

 

Innovations in internet technology will have a material impact on the mobile communications industry.

 

Rural Penetration

 

Rural coverage remains one of the key parameters for the growth of wireless business. The growth of rural subscription is higher than urban subscription and share of rural subscriber stands at 31.05 per cent.

 

Infrastructure sharing

 

There will be a greater potential for tower sharing / outsourcing model with the entry of new telecom players into India and also due to the advent of 3G and WiMax.

 

 Competition

 

There will be fierce competition among existing and new telecom operators, leading to substantial benefits for the

subscribers.

 

BWA

 

Newer Access technologies like BWA and 3G can significantly transform the character of internet/broadband scenario in India, opening new opportunity for us.

 

Outlook

 

Telecom - Pivotal for future growth:

 

Telecommunication, as an infrastructure, is a major key pivot to the socio-economic development. The global telecommunication industry is witnessing a fundamental change. It was voice segment that was dominant key driver of money earner to the operators, which also led equipment manufactures to concentrate on voice-enabled devices. Now, voice is shifting to a backseat, while data and video are emerging the core focus areas. A new network standard aims at faster data connectivity, quick video streaming with high resolution, and rich multimedia

applications. They at RCOM are vibrant to this shift.

 

Telecom as a Catalyst:

 

The telecommunications is one of the main catalyst of the accelerated growth and progress of different segments of the economy by narrowing access gaps and removing barriers to information. Their enhanced Network capabilities and global footprint makes us preferred carrier choice amongst other players.

 

Broadband penetration:

 

India is catching up other Asia-pacific peers in terms of broadband penetration. At 6 per cent, India’s household (fixedline and wireless) broadband penetration is among the lowest in the Asia-Pacific. This is mainly due to low personal computer penetration and a lack of 3G and BWA services.With the launch of 3G services, wireless broadband penetration is expected to increase. In August 2010, TRAI set a household penetration target rate of 30 per cent by end-2012 and 60 per cent by end-2014. The uptake of wireless broadband will depend on 3G/ BWA handset penetration and 3G/ BWA tariff plans.
