Reliance Communications, Known as RCOM (http://www.rcom.co.in/webapp/Communications/jsp/rmobile/index.jsp) is providing cellular services based on  CDMA  technology. When they introduced services, they made history and initiated revolution in India to make mobile Communications affordable to mass. They even offered handsets at affordable price and also offered installments of about Rs. 200 for 36 months so that common man of India can afford mobile phones. After the death of visionary Shri Dhirubhai Ambani and subsequent split of two Ambani brothers, RCOM services started becoming expensive or they became slower to react to the changes in market because every day mobile communication is beoming cheaper. For example, Aitel (India's largest cellular service provider) reduced long distance (STD) charges to Rs. 1.50 per minute from about Rs. 2.50. Reliance (RCOM) was the last to reduce its STD tarrif and infact even after that they reduced rates to Rs. 1.50 per minue, where as many other smaller operators started offfering prices even lower than that. Despite of the fact that smaller operators do not have their own national network. To the horror of most subscriber (infact most subscribers are not aware as they are not informed till date by RCOM) RCOM increased rate for internet browsing to about Rs. 115000 per GB (About US $ 2500 - 2700 per GB).  Which makes them one of the most expensive internet service provider in the world, perhaps.

It is one of the strange vagaries of modern Indian business that some of the largest companies exhibit concentration of captial to an extent not dreamed of by even the robber barons of the 19th century. Even with publicly listed companies, the mostly rubber stamp board allows significant decisions to be taken by the CEO, who in many cases is accountable to pretty much no one. While the institutional investors might not object as long as their interests are protected, there is an insidious effect of long-term erosion of capital and confidence that goes beyond even what one might expect with neo-liberal economies. The bull run of the last few years has emboldened the corporate satraps to disregard even their erstwhile political cronies. The acrimonious Reliance conglomerate break-up and continuing feud has been reported in the business pages much like a celebrity hatefest in the gossip columns. The growing potential for irreparable damage to a significant tranche of capital due to impulsive decisions derived more from personal animosity than business rivalry has been ignored, or overlooked in the heady period of a bull market. Recent events might mean it is time for greater regulation of the fragmented conglomerate, if only to preserve Indian credibility in global markets. The Mukesh Ambani-founded Reliance Communications went to Anil Ambani under the terms of the breakup agreement, currently controlling close to 66.75% of the compa ...
