If you inhabit the realm of India, the name of Uninor is surely known to you. Even though Uninor is the GSM mobile service brand of Unitech Wireless, it is also joint venture company of India’s second largest real estate major Unitech Limited and the world’s largest mobile services provider Telenor Group of Norway. What makes one laud Uninor so loudly?
The only reason is that Uninor has launched its GSM service in Orissa Telcom circle and this is certainly a new beginning. It is to be noted that the latest entrant in Indian GSM space Uninor is covering 8 telecom circles that is to say Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, UP East, UP West, Bihar-Jharkhand and now Orissa.
It has to be mentioned as well that the company (under its sway) has a pan-India UAS licence to offer mobile telephony services in each of India’s 22 circles with spectrum to roll out these services in 21 of the 22 circles. Uninor, on the day of launching, will be retailed at over 13762 points of sales in Orissa telecom circle, which is yet again the largest ever launch distribution achieved by any GSM operator in India.
Speaking on this feat, Stein-Erik Vellan, Managing Director, Uninor, said, “With launch in Orissa now Uninor’s presence in eight telecom circles and roaming agreements in place for the rest, we have started our service in India on day one as a pan-Indian national operator. This is a proud achievement of a committed and talented team. While our launch today is indeed a milestone in a longer journey to become a significant operator in India, we are delighted to have made such a strong start.”
Before I finish, this should also be mentioned. Uninor is launching its service with two price plans — a base plan called talkmore at 29 paise and a subscription plan called callmore at 29 paise Talkmore at 29 paise is designed for customers who talk longer on their calls.
