(TOURIST TIPS)SAVE ROAMING CHARGES IN INDIA

If you already have a cell phone that is compatible, we strongly advise you to rent a SIM card. You will save a fortune versus using your own. For just USD 17.68 you'll have a SIM card that gives you 187.80 minutes of cross-network local calls. That's about USD 0.05 a minute. Have you ever heard of roaming rates as low as that? Compare that to roaming charges with your current service provider. We reckon you would be lucky to get a price lower than $2 a minute. As an example, the tables below compare our charges to T-Mobile's roaming costs for its UK monthly contract customers.

Nowadays, a cell phone is a prerequisite to travel to India, whether on business, to visit family, as a tourist, or simply to shop. Having a cell phone with you can make all the difference between a smooth, hassle-free trip, and a visit characterised by sweat, stress, and a lot of wasted time.
With a mobile phone, you can keep in touch with your chauffeur, arrange meetings, organise travel tickets, alert or be alerted of a meeting postponement, you can even make cheap calls to your home country. However useful a phone is to you now, it is practically essential in India. Fixed line phones are rare, and public phones almost invisible. The wireless networks have the best communications infrastructure in all of India, and are very reliable. You can even hook up your PDA or laptop and surf the net using Indian wireless networks
