Top 20 Operators in Asia-Pac: Bharti overtakes DoCoMo, India Gains Ground
The mobile markets of the Asia Pacific region continues to grow in importance. In Issue 99, we reported the fact that at the end of September, there were 20 networks in the world with more than 30m customers, of which eight were in this region. Those eight included the two largest - China Mobile and China Unicom - as well as the seventh, eighth, tenth, twelfth, 13th and 20th. Just three months later, there are now 23 networks that have passed the 30m mark and nine of these are now in the AsiaPac region, including four from India. Of the nine, four now have over 50m customers, the other two outside China being Bharti from India and DoCoMo from Japan. Together, the nine have a total of 831m customers, or just under 25% of the global market. more

Bharti Airtel Q2 07/08 Results to 30th September 2007
With 48.9 million customers at the end of September 2007, Bharti Airtel is the largest mobile operator in India, the third largest in Asia Pacific and the seventh largest in the world after overtaking both Telcel of Mexico and DoCoMo of Japan in the third quarter. With a fourth quarter as strong as the third the company should move into sixth place in the global rankings by the end of the year, ahead of the struggling SprintNextel, and perhaps even into the fifth place currently held by Mobile Tele-Systems - although for this to occur the Russian company would have to suffer an extraordinarily disappointing final quarter. The chart shows Bharti's progress over the last five years; we exclude the two Chinese operators for the sake of making the scale explanatory. more

The Top 10 Asia Pacific Operators in 2006
Over the last few quarters there has been little or no change at the top of the list of the Asia Pacific region's largest operators. China Mobile is still the number one and is still by far the largest mobile operator in the world, with the best part of 300m customers as at December 2006. However, this is not to suggest that the Asia Pacific mobile market is anything other than highly dynamic - five of the ten largest companies in the region were not in the top ten last year and two were barely in the top 20. more

MobileWorld's Global Q2 2006 Operator Review
The list of the largest single nation operators is almost the same as it was this time last year. Because the Indian mobile market is still fragmented, no one operator has managed to enter the top ten as the market as a whole did in the league table of markets. more
