Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) has made a statement that it would allow for domestic Internet Telephony paving the way for VOIP deployments domestically in Hyderabad and through out India.
What this means to us? This will mean lower tariffs for local STD, lower international rates, increased use of VOIP across the country. Also, its a big boon for the local VOIP service providers like Vonage. It also means that a number of VOIP ancillary industries and software companies will mushroom paving the way for more number of job opportunities in the domestic market in VOIP field.
No more ordering Vonage routers from USA and opening accounts abroad to make international phone calls. All this can be done with hardware bought locally and using local service providers. I wonder if they would allow re-use of old equipment imported for use in India. Let's wait and see how exactly will this benefit all by and large.
Cheers!!!
