The teledensity in India grew at a rate from just about three for every 100 people in 2000 to reach 10.66 per 100 as of October 2005. This phenomenal growth in the telecommunication scenario can be attributed to the exponential growth of the wireless phones in the country. The major beneficiary of these policy initiatives has been the wireless market, which has spearheaded the telecom revolution in India and has continued to attract large investments.
