Virgin Mobile India GSM - New FRC for Kolkata

Though I am not sure about is it a new plan for new customers or it is another promotional offer, but Virgin Mobile India comes up with a new FRC for its new GSM customers. You can remember that Virgin is not too keen to keep offering CDMAservices.

* Virgin Mobile India (VMI)'s GSM services are based on Tata Docomo's GSM network.

Promotional offer for new customers of VMI GSM:

Tata DoCoMo - what does it mean ?

NTT DoCoMo is a leading telecom operator in Japan. ( Wiki & Official )

It bought 26% stake in Tata Tele's GSM venture under dual licence policy. Well there was a discussion about the *JV's brand name. Now it has been anounced that this new GSM operator's brand name is Tata DoCoMo. (visit the home page clicking the link)

* JV= joint venture

But do you know what does 'DoCoMo' mean really? 

The name is officially an abbreviation of the phrase, "do communications over the mobile network", and is also from a phrase dokodemo, meaning "everywhere" in Japanese. {from Wiki}


Do you know how to write NTT DoCoMo in Japanese ?

株式会社エヌ・ティ・ティ・ドコモ (chances r there u can't see it properly) :) :) :p

Tata Docomo will be rolling out its services over India, Southern states get this new GSM operator 1st, then We will have it in Eastern India also. As resources saying, Kolkata can get Tata Docomo in October-December this year. Cheers, another new operator = cheaper& attractive tariffs.
