Tata Indicom has the least congested network

Tata Teleservices Ltd(TTSL), the second largest CDMA operator in the country has said in a statement that it has the least congestion on its network in terms of point of interconnection (POI).

POI reflects the ease with which a customer on one network is able to communicate with a customer of another network and it also reflects the effective interconnection between two concerned networks.

The benchmark that has been notified by the sector regulator is less then 0.5 per cent. It means out of 200 inter-network calls only one call should face congestion problem.

The company has made this statement on the basis of a latest report by the Telecom regulatory Authority of India (TRAI). The report on network congestion stated that TTSL has recorded the least congested POI of only ten as compared to 83 POI of Airtel, 41 of Reliance and 43 of Vodafone for the month of March, 2008.

Also, TTSL is the only operator whose POI congestion has consistently reduced over a period of three months, the statement added.

"Today mobile customers are very discerning and they look for quality of service than just cost advantage. From crystal clear voice quality and minimal call drops our customers experience the advantages of being on Tata Indicom's network. This acknowledgment further reassures our customers and endorsers that we provide nothing except the best," said TTSL Chief Technology Officer A G Rao.
