Porters Five force model for the IndustryThreat of new entrants :
•In 2002, the cost of 4.4 Mhz of spectrum was Rs.1650 crores and in 2007 the cost remains same.
•Six new licences were given this year.
Threat of Substitute Products:
Wimax allows VOIP which may be threat in future since ISP can operate it with low cost.
Barriers to entry
•High capital investments, older and well-established players who have a nation wide network, license fee, continuously evolving technology and falling tariffs.
Express yourselfExpress yourself
Bargaining power of suppliers
• Improved competitive scenario and commoditisation of telecom services has led to reduced bargaining power for services providers.
Bargaining power of customers
• A wide variety of choices available to customers both in fixed as well as mobile telephony has resulted in increased bargaining power for the customers.
Competition
• The entry of fourth cellular player and commencement of WLL services has resulted in intense competition in the bigger cities. Reducing tariffs will hurt the new entrants, as they will be unable to recover their high capital investments.

SWOT Analysis:Strength:
• Operation in 23 circle in the country• Higest no of towers (Around 80,000) by airtel• 22 million subscribers ahead of its nearest competitors.Weakness:Too much dependence on domestic market.
Opportunities:
A strong economy and a growing market:
• The Indian telecommunication industry is amongst the fastest growing telecom markets in the world and
• Higher per capita income and appetite for increased consumption is resulting in a greater-than-proportionate impetus for telecom growth.
•As an ISP, Bharti can roll out VOIP services if WiMax texhnology is rolled out.
Express yourselfExpress yourself
Threats:
•Dip in ARPU.
•Increased competition may reduce market share and/or revenue
•Mobile Number portability may result in switch over of customers to competitors.
•Taxation(30% of revenue).
•Vodafone has the advantage in 3G services than Airtel since it has experience of running the 3G service in other countries.
