by 2010.

No coordination between sales executive, retailers and distribution of Reliance

Communication.

Insufficient stocks are provided to the distributors of company.

Company should provide better distribution channel.

Sales person should visit retailer more frequently.

CONLUSION

Rural markets in India constitute a wide and untapped market for many

products and services which are being marketed for the urban masses.

Rural tele-density is very poor and can be improved only through the

introduction of modern and suitable technology along with participation from the

private operators.

Mobile phone ownership in India is growing rapidly, six million new mobile

subscriptions are added each month.

The epicenter of mobile growth has started shifting from the metros to rural area.

Now, Every operator are concentrating on rural market due to very low mobilepenetration.
