    Executive Summary

    The telecom sector in Bangladesh is rapidly emerging. Bangladesh Telecommunication

    Regulatory Commission (BTRC) is the regulatory authority for this sector. Thetelecommunication sector of Bangladesh started its journey in 1989 with the small step. After

    that in the late 1990s there was a significant changes in the number of fixed and mobile

    services deployed. Currently there are 6 mobile phone operators in Bangladesh.

    GrameenPhone & Airtel are two of them.

    GrameenPhone started its operations on March 26, 1997, the Independence Day of

    Bangladesh. GrameenPhone was the first company to introduce GSM technology in

    Bangladesh. Today, there are nearly 2.6 million EDGE/GPRS users and more than 31 million

    subscribers in the GrameenPhone network.

    At present 98% population of our country is within in the coverage of GrameenPhone

    network. GrameenPhone expanded its network to 61 districts out of 64 and 400 upzillas out

    of 460.

    GrameenPhone provides 5 major services to customer. These are- International Roaming,

    Mobile Services, Internet, Packages, Handsets. In Sylhet GrameenPhone have

    GrameenPhone Center (own) 1, GrameenPhone Center franchise 1, GrameenPhone

    Service desk 1, GrameenPhone Service Touch point 130. From above of the care center

    GrameenPhone customers get services. Following are some features that must be followed by

    the employee of GrameenPhone center: quality service ensure, to the point answer, maintain

    corporate culture. GrameenPhone also has other services such as- online customer service,

    village phone program, community information center.

    Airtel Bangladesh is the sixth mobile phone carrier to enter the Bangladesh market, and

    launched commercial operations on May 10, 2007. Warid Telecom International LLC, an

    Abu Dhabi based consortium, sold a majority 70% stake in the company to India's Bharti

    Airtel Limited for US$300 million.Bharti Airtel Limited will take management control of the

    company and its board, and rebranded the company's services under its own Airtel brand

    from 20th December, 2010. In this year there are more than 1800 employees & more than 5

    million customers of Airtel. Today, approximately 45% population of our country is within

    Airtel has also 5 major services. These are: International roaming, mobile services, internet,

    packages, and handsets. In Sylhet Airtel have

    Airtel Experience Center 1, Airtel Relationship Center 8, Airtel Service Center 8 . From

    above care center Airtel customer get all types of services. Airtel Relationship Center must

    maintain the following features: quality service ensures, to the point answer, always give

    priority to customer. Both GrameenPhone & Airtel have some value added services.

    From the opinion of employees & customers of GrameenPhone & Airtel, in comparison we

    can say that- The customer service of Airtel is better than GrameenPhone.The network

    coverage of GrameenPhone is best, but Airtel has average network coverage. The call rate of

    Airtel is the best. GrameenPhone has a strong online customer service but Airtel has no

    online customer service.

    In findings we can say that-

    GrameenPhone is perfectly strength for its strong network coverage on the other hand Airtel

    is perfectly strength for its customer service & 3G (NGN) network. The opportunity of

    GrameenPhone is to get link to the upcoming technology i.e. Wi-Max. The opportunity of

    Airtel adopting Wi-Max which will definitely support by the 3G (NGN) network. Upcoming

    technology may not support the present technological infrastructure is threat for the

    GrameenPhone . Other potential competitors are threat for Airtel. In conclusion we can say,

    short term defensive strategy & high call rate are the weak point of GrameenPhone, which

    may hamper. Thats why GrameenPhone should give concentrate in this sector. On the other

    hand Airtel for its product design & product marketing. So Airtel should develop to

    overcome this weakness.

    6.1Recommendation:

    By analyzing the above information we can say that though GrameenPhone is the best

    for network coverage, but their call rate is higher than any other mobile operators

    higher than any other mobile operator. Maximum people use GrameenPhone becauseof network coverage and their internet facility. So GrameenPhone should be reducing

    their call rate.

    On the other hand Airtel is best for customer service but their Network coverage is

    weaker then other operators.

    People like to use Airtel because of their minimum call rate, avoid using Airtel

    because their network weakness. So Airtel should increase their network.

    6.2 Conclusion:

    From the above study at last we can say that Both GrameenPhone and Airtel are

    favorable for user because of the different types of services. Both organizations have

    pleasurable or unpleased services.

    GrameenPhone take unimaginable place in the telecommunication service because of

    there network coverage and now, Airtel compete with GrameenPhone giving less call

    rate facility. Both of these compete each other and take good place in the

    telecommunication service sector in Bangladesh.
