BSNL mobile subscribers will soon be able to avail free calling benefits offered on their landline phone as the state-run firm is going to roll out a convergence platform that will sync subscribers’ mobile and fixed line connections.

“We are in the process of rolling out fix mobile convergence platform by Diwali. This will enable consumers avail value added service in mobile phones, make free night calls from mobile phones if they have subscribed to landline and host of other modern facilities,” BSNL Chairman and MD Anupam Shrivastava told PTI.

He said that with this roll out, consumers will be able to link their mobile and landline accounts.

“The sync between the two accounts will be such that it will enable our subscribers receive their landline calls on mobile phones,” Shrivastava said.

BSNL has invested over Rs 400 crore to modernise its landlines.

The company slipped to sixth position in terms of overall subscriber base in April. At the end of August, BSNL’s total subscriber base was around 7.8 crore. After a long period, BSNL in July and August 2015 ranked among top five mobile players in terms of net addition of monthly subscribers.

BSNL, however, has been losing customers in landline space despite offering free night calls from landline to any phone in India.

“We have been able to arrest decline rate in landline connections. In a few months and with launch of fix mobile convergence, our landline should turn positive. We have already turned gainer for mobile subscribers under mobile number portability scheme,” Shrivastava said.

The company has launched free roaming scheme which enables its subscribers to attend free incoming calls while travelling anywhere in the country at no extra cost.

“Free roaming scheme has become one of the major growth drivers for uptake in mobile subscriber number,” Shrivastava added.

The company is also in the process to tie up with Hitachi’s ATM business unit which will allow its landline customers, who pay bill offline, to make payment anytime during the day.

BSNL has launched free talk-time between 9 PM and 7 AM for its landline connections. The offer came into effect on May 1.

Landline connections under select plans, and landlines with broadband facilities in the cities and rural areas across the nation are being brought under the Night Unlimited
Calling plans.

Telecommunication technology currently includes facilities like the internet, cellphone, e-mail, SMS, and MMS services. In addition to these, Whatsapp too is gaining popularity around the world.

With the advent of cellphones, landlines have been fast losing popularity. Different ISD and STD tariffs also contributed to the fall in popularity. Meanwhile, competition for BSNL in the telecommunication field increased with the entry of private players. Massive discounts and facilities offered by the private companies led to a huge fall in the demand for landlines. Lakhs of connections were surrendered all over the country in the past ten years. Currently, India has 2,30,00,000 landline connections. Tamil Nadu has 13,60,000 active BSNL connections.

BSNL revenue has been steadily falling over the years. But, currently most of the BSNL users are those who heavily utilize the internet connections. Traders and commercial establishments also utilize the BSNL facilities.
