Shailendra Bhatnagar writes for Reuters:
India's booming wireless sector, the world's fastest growing major mobile market, added 2.49 million new users in July, taking the total number of customers to 60.366 million, industry bodies said on Tuesday.
The Cellular Operators' Association, representing nine carriers offering mobile services based on the widely prevalent Global System for Mobile (GSM) communication, said 1.954 million customers signed up for its services.
Overall, GSM carriers had 46.874 million customers at the end of July, up 4.35 percent over June.
The strong growth in the past month came despite heavy monsoon rains that wreaked havoc in Bombay, a top market for cellular services, T.V. Ramachandran, director general of the Cellular Operators' Association, said.
