Aircel Mobile Internet Scheme A Hit

MUMBAI, INDIA (GaeaTimes.com)- Aircel is among the leading mobile service providers of India and it caters to the GSM segment as of now. Though, it entered the market much later than old time players like Airtel, Vodafone and Reliance, it has been able to capture a large share of the rural and urban market with time. The success of Aircel is largely owing to its competitive tariff rate and exciting offers for the users. However, it has also cashed in on the growing trend to use Internet over mobile networks. Its pocket internet card which allows seamless web browsing and download from GPRS enabled sets has caught on with Indian users really well. This is also due to the fact that the price of GSM handsets has taken a nosedive in the last two years.

While a GPRS equipped set would have cost INR 5000 and up a few years back, now one can buy such a set for as less as INR 2500. Particularly, the users who stay in rural areas where Broadband internet has not reached, have lapped up the pocket internet scheme offered by Aircel Mobile. It is pretty economical and fairly easy to set up. Not only it enables one to access web from his mobile set, but he can also connect it to his laptop and PC and access web just as easily.

According to Google’s estimates, in the last few months mobile internet usage in India has grown by leaps and bounds. While other operators also have mobile internet access packages, Aircel’s offer has proved to be a hit.
