Reliance Communications (RCOM) will shut down its CDMA services in all of its telecom circles starting yesterday except in 4 circles of Rajasthan, Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Karnataka, in a bid to migrate CDMA customers to its 4G network, RTN Asia reported. In these 4 circles, RCOM will migrate its CDMA subscribers nto its GSM network. The telco will first upgrade “the most profitable customers” i.e., customers who generate the highest amount of voice and data billing. MediaNama has written twice to Reliance Communications for a confirmation of this development, but there has been no response, only an acknowledgement of our mail.

RCOM had apparently already informed its subscribers in early April about migration of its CDMA services to 4G. For this transition, RCOM had paid Rs 5383.84 crore as aliberalization fee to the telecom department under the 800 Mhz band in 16 circles in January. For 4 other circles in which auction determined price is not available, RCOM said that it would pay Rs 1,300 crore to the DoT.
