Broadband: Opportunity in IndiaLeast broadband penetrated markets with current penetration of less than 2 percent.
1. Low PC penetration
2. Limited wire line infrastructure
3. High tariffs
4. Limited presence in rural areas
5. The legacy wireline infrastructure is not scalable for providing high speed broadband services
6. Availability of low cost devices
7. Young demographic profile
8. High use of VAS by other sectors
