LORD OF THE RING
Sunil Bharti MittalChairman & Managing Director since October 2001
Board director since: July 1995
Age: 50 years
Sunil Bharti Mittal is the Chairman and Managing Director of Bharti Group.
Indias largest private integrated telecom player. Sunil Bharti Mittal is best
known as Indias telecom czar. With 30 million subscribers, he is at the
forefront of Indias phenomenal telecom growth. Mittal is recognized as one ofthe few businessmen who can think out of the box.
Sunil was one of the first entrepreneurs to identify the mobile telecom business as
a major growth area and launched services in the city of Delhi and the National
Capital Region in the year 1995. Under his inspiring leadership the company
grew organically and inorganically, covering the entire country by providing
integrated telecom services.
He tied up with Wal-Mart in end of November, and became the biggest retailer inthe world. His opponents in the business complain and crib that Mittal had
circumvented the rules for his retail foray, but deep in their heart, they are all
worried: if Mittal gets even half as aggressive as in telecom there could be tough
days ahead.
In his personal capacity, Sunil has received several awards such as:

12/59
Ernst & Young Entrepreneur Of The Year 2004, Ernst & Young
Best Asian Telecom CEO, Telecom Asia Awards 2005
Best CEO, India, Institutional Investor, 2005
Business Leader Of The Year, Economic Times, 2005
CEO of The Year, Business Standard, 2006
Those who know Mittal well will insist that he is a street fighter who does not
give up easily. Rana Kapoor, the managing director and CEO of Yes Bank,
remembers that even as a college student in 1970s,Mittal never liked to lose,
even if it was a game of billiards at a South Delhi club
A look at Bharti Airtels numbers will tell that he is rated among the best. Bharti
Airtel has grown at a CAGR of 55 percent in the last three years; compared witha loss in 2003, the company reported a profit of Rs. 2000 crore in 2005-06; its
return on net worth stands at an impressive 27.45 per cent, up from 26.73 per cent
a year ago.
Mittal has built his entire business from scratch. His father, Sat Paul Mittal, was a
Congress politician from Ludhiana. It was in this town that Mittal started off
selling bicycle parts in 1976 and, later, hawking imported portable generators in
an autorickshaw. When the government decided to ban the import of generators,
Mittal had no choice but to close shop. It was then that he forayed into
pushbutton phones.
But it was the opening of the telecom sector that dramatically changed his
fortunes. He bid for and won the Delhi mobile licence. This company is now one
of the largest manufacturers of telephones in the world. With the introduction of
Airtel mobile phones in Delhi, India in 1995, they really hit the spotlight. Mittal
prides himself on a string of firsts: "the first push-button, the first cordless, the
first answering machines, the first fax machines".
From then on there has been no looking back, even though he changed partners
from Vivendi to Singapore Telecom to Vodafone.
In between, he did a 50:50 joint venture with the Rothschilds, called Field Fresh
Foods, to export fresh fruit and vegetable to the European Union and tied up with
AXA for a foray into life insurance. He has done huge network management
deals with Nokia and Ericsson, while he has outsourced his information
technology to IBM.

His successful entrepreneurial journey is an inspiration to a new generation of
Indian entrepreneurs. Mr. Sunil Mittal represented India in the Ernst & YoungWorld Entrepreneur of the Year Award ceremony in Monte Carlo, Monaco in
May 2005. Apart from his role at Bharti, Sunil holds the position of the Honorary
Consul General of the Republic of Seychelles in New Delhi, India. Some of his
other roles include being a member of the Prime Ministers Council on Trade and
Industry; Co-Chairman of the Indo-British Partnership and a Board Member of
the Global GSM Association.

8/8/2019 Rehman Report
21/59
Digital Subscriber Line Technology was developed by Joe Lechleider at Bellcore
(later named Telcordia Technologies). The first type of DSL, ADCL
(Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line) was created in 1988.
Digital Subscriber Line Technology
DSL also known as xDSL is a group of technologies that provide data
transmission through the wires of local phone company. Previously DSL stood
for Digital Subscriber Loop, although now many have adopted the term Digital
Subscriber Line.
With a large variety if DSL services; theoretical downstream speeds can rangefrom 256KBIT/S to 24 MBIT/S (24000KBIT/S), depending on various factors,
such as line quality, type of DSL and distance from provider.
Airtel Data Service is powered by DSL i.e. Digital Subscriber Line technology.
The Company also provides telephone services and Internet access over DSL in
15 circles.
DSL provides blazing-fast, secure Internet access and can be delivered to both
homes and to businesses. Delivered right through a regular telephone line data
rates can vary from 128Kb to 8Mb per second depending on the type and cost ofthe service.
DSL technology provides instant Internet and network access at speeds up to 50
times faster than a 28.8Kbps modem on a standard analog phone line. There are
no Dial-up delays, no busy signals. What used to take minutes or hours to
download will take just seconds or minutes.
With DSL Internet service graphics heavy files, large documents, software,
photos, E-mail attachments and more instantly. And because DSL InternetService sends data and voice over the same line, you can talk on the phone while
you are online.
And most important its a service that you dont have to dial into. Just turn on
your PC, open a browser, and you are ready to surf (No more hearing those
annoying beeps and tones, then waiting to be connected. You are always

connected whenever you wish to!). Beyond Internet access, DSL also has the
ability to carry additional phone lines and entertainment services using the same
pair of wires.
Which one is better DSL or Cable
According to Network and Security
The over all security of DSL is much stronger than cable due to fact its a
dedicated connection to the provider and is less likely to get interference from
threats. Although you are never safe without the proper software or hardware to
protect your system.
According to Speed
DSL provides a dedicated connection, thus giving a much more constant speed.
Cable connection speeds will constantly fluctuate depending on the amount of
users on the network.

THE BRAND

-
8/8/2019 Rehman Report
33/59
The Airtel visual identity has different elements that work together to create a
strong and consistent identity for the brand. The most important of these are:
The Airtel Logo
The Airtel logo is a strong, contemporary and confident symbol for a brand that
is always ahead of the rest. It is a specially drawn wordmark.
The Airtel Image style
It incorporates two solid, red rectangular forms whose counterform creates an
open doorway.
The Airtel Typographical style
The title case lettering with its capital 'A' was deliberately chosen to reinforce the
brand's leadership position. The red dot on the letterform 'I' cues Airtel's focus on
innovation.. The words 'Express Yourself' are very much part of the brand
identity.
The Airtel Colour Palette
The lettering is grey so that the pure black of Airtel is visually unharmed.

Time constraints: due to limitation of time we dont have a large variety of
customers.
At times customers are not ready to listen to the information given to them
because they are too angry with the whole processing system. So didntrespond.
Limited area for operations: we were bounded by the authorities for a
particular and specified area of operations there in we did not have a
variety of postpaid customer. Had it been a bigger area outcomes of the
project would have been really outstanding.
