India mobile take up reaches new high
India added 2.11 million new mobile users in October, the biggest number in a single month, according to the Cellular Operators' Association.

Take up has been boosted by the slow spread of fixed-line telecoms and India now has nearly 53 million Global System for Mobile users. It added 1.96 million in September.
