Broadband in India: what is it up to?

[Bobbyguitarist]

So Almost 3Lakhs For Laying a Km of Fiber. How do the Present companies even Recover from the present customers?
Beam already does this. atleast in the hyderabad city. and it also has high speed-low priced plans. hows this possible?

First, Beam Telecom is funded by Venture Group so financially they are too strong.
Second, they are in the market since a long time but only developed in the last 2 years when the funding began.
Third, even Beam is unable to lay underground cable . Future is uncertain what will happen when Metro Excavation starts and all those fiber are pulled to ground.

I don't see any point why anyone cannot succeed with such favorable conditions.

Will they Choose Colonies to Build Metro? They can Lay it in the colony and If you go to Hmda office you will get the plan paper. Or they proceed forward avoiding the route where the project has been planned
