MTS India has 0.58 Million Data Card Subscribers

Recommended Posts

Sistema Shyam Teleservices (MTS India), the telecom operator focusing primarily on data services, has reported a data card subscriber base of 0.58 million for the quarter ended 31st March 2011 (Q1-11), up 36% (around 150,000) from the 0.43 million it reported at the end of December 2010. Non-voice revenues from both data and mobile VAS for the quarter reportedly went up by 33% Q-o-Q to Rs 58.8 crore, which was around 25% of the companys total revenue. Quarter on quarter, data and VAS revenues increased from Rs 44.2 crore reported the last fiscal. The company says it has expanded its data services business to 130 cities in India, including all 5 metros.

Unlike the previous quarter, MTS hasn’t reported data card ARPU. For December 2010, it reported a Data Card ARPU of Rs. 274. Blend ARPU was the same quarter on quarter, albeit at a very low figure of Rs 82. While MTS has pointed out a declining ARPU in the market, note that other telecom operators have focused on a “reducing decline”, saying that price competition is reducing.

The company says in a statement that ”…SSTL in May 2011 awarded the world’s first CDMA EV-DO Rev. B Phase 2 commercial contract. The company plans to commence roll out of EV-DO Rev. B in Rajasthan by Q3 2011.”
