RCoM unveils 1 paise per SMS
Reliance Communications (RCOM.NS : 169.3 +1.15
) introduced 1 paise per SMS plan taking the tariff war to the data front from voice calls.
The Anil Ambani group company launched a plan under which 1 paise will be charged per SMS and at a monthly rental of Rs 11, Reliance Communications President Mahesh Prasad, said.
Telecom Minister A Raja recently had said telcos need to bring down SMS rates which are currently at 50-60 paise per SMS.
Other operators are likely to follow suit.
