Anil Ambani’s decision to apply for GSM spectrum has baffled everybody. Qualcomm has lost its sleep and people believe it is just a negotiation stunt by Anil. But there is more to this story than just negotiation tactics. Read on….
Anil Ambani, a stock market addict by heart, wants to offer its customers mobile trading service. However, CDMA technology which operates on packet transfer technology is not suited for online trading. CDMA unlike GSM technology operates on packet system and donot have a dedicated slot for transmission of data from one location to another location. Which means the data transmission is neither continuous nor as secured as GSM making it unfit for mobile trading.
Hence Anil Ambani has applied for GSM spectrum in metro and other developed city where he plans to provide telecom service through both CDMA and GSM service. Through GSM service he will try to target top end customers to whom he would also provide mobile trading service. In rest of the country where he is not hoping to find sufficient mobile trading customer he would continue with CDMA service only.
