BSNL broadband has a ridiculous limit of 400mb download limit for one month. When the world is getting into IPTV India is getting into low end DSL.
I think we should build the latest infrastructure as the European Telecoms are doing.
agreed. Atleast the big tech hubs should get into something like FTTP. The old cities wimax/wireless mesh(aka tropos mesh) sounds much better.
Perhaps we are where we were in mobile telephony just a few years ago. MTNL has just doubled my download cap to 1GB and I’m sure, sooner or later, things will change.

PLEASE take a look at this link!!! After reading that, I CAN certify that Broadband in India is YET to come!! Maybe 15 years from now!!!!!!
To give a Gist of the article, the user is wondering whether or not to take a 1GBPS broadband connection from a new provider!! Because he feels his current 100MBPS connection is fine and he doesn’t want to change his friggin’ NUMBER!!!
