Cellular market penetration is also projected to increase from 12.7% in 2006 to 38.6% in 2011 • The overall penetration will primarily be driven by an increased focus on rural market. By 2011, Gartner expects 58% of the rural population and 95% of the urban population to be covered with mobile connections. It is indicating that there was still scope for reducing mobile tariff, although call rates have reduced to about 2.6 cents per minute, it remained high compared with fixed-line rates at 0.9 cents per minute • Rural market presents immense growth opportunities as mobile penetration was just 2%. Many firms are planning to tap this market by introducing handsets that would cost below Rs1,000

Though bandwidth sales and IRUs currently account for the largest portion of revenues, IP-based services are the fastest growing segment. RCOM faces significant competition from VSNL which is also gearing up to focus on this profitable market segment • Bharti Airtel, which had earlier bagged the licence to become Sri Lanka’s fifth GSM-based service provider, will launch second and third generation mobile services in the island nation by the end of the current fiscal and invest about US$200m by 2012.
