The Union Cabinet has approved a decision
to abolish roaming charges on mobile subscriptions across the country.
Additionally, users will be able to retain their mobile numbers even
after moving to another circle. The cabinet had met to decide upon the National Telecom Policy (NTP) 2012 today, when these decisions were made.
Subscribers had to pay huge roaming charges earlier for calls as well as SMSs, and were also required to change their mobile number if they were to shift residence to another circle. These decisions will make it easier for users to brace for the impact of the impending hike in mobile tariff as had been reported earlier. It is interesting to note that India currently has one of the lowest mobile tariffs in the world, and anything that is cheaper will always be welcome.
