Landline, mobile tariffs set to fall |
India landline and mobile phone tariffs are set to fall as the telecom regulator announced a cut in charges that companies pay to terminate calls on competing networks. The move will particularly benefit users of fixed-line phones, who may soon get major benefits in terms of free monthly calls and minutes. The termination charge from fixed-line phones has been reduced from 20 paise per minute to zero, in case of mobile phones it has been slashed by 30% to 14 paise from 20 paise per minute. Government owned BSNL said tariffs will fall substantially, while smaller mobile operators like Uninor said customers will benefit from the measure.
