Tata-owned Videsh Sanchar Nigam Limited (VSNL) has launched its Internet over cable broadband offering in Mumbai. Considered to be a soft launch, the service is expected to be available to about 30 cities in India over the next two years.
VSNL's service is being offered at Rs. 360 per month at a speed of 512 kbps.
According to Tata, the new wave of broadband is being pursued with the objective of providing total connectivity. "We will pursue the triple play voice, data and video in this changing scenario," he explained. Tata described the telecom scene in India as "vicious" and said it was necessary for VSNL to offer high quality services at the best price.
