Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd (BSNL), launches third-generation (3G) services in 11 cities and plans to expand Smartphones services to other areas in the country. BSNL said in a statement it had invested Rs 2,700 crore ($530 million) on rolling out 3G infrastructure and would cover all district headquarters and important commercial towns. India will hold an auction of 3G spectrum later this year, but state-run firms have already been given one slot in each service area, and will have to match the highest bid from private operators.
