    I think its a smart “Business” idea! how far its successful depends on the customers….

    Actually these numbers are more imp when the numbers are used for business purposes…like justdial, meru etc… where the company wants ppl to remember the number easily to call…. and you won’t believe but in inbound related telebusinesses the demand for these numbers is immense with ppl requiring specific number patterns…

    Auction of premium numbers.
    How come BSNL is unable to come up with better products and ideas than such trifles.
    I had given a presentation to BSNL Kerala few years back on the explosive business potential of of non-telephony related Value added service “Money Management by phone” as un-banked pay by phone method, both mobile and fixed using the existing technology, systems and network.

    I had taken up with DOT, TRAI, MOC, RBI etc to alleviate their fear that such un-banked Pay by Phone services will not be disrupting to banking industry. Moreover, it is the quickest and simplest way to realize ‘Financial Inclusion of common mass especially in the lower economic strata across the country.
