Once upon a time, Aircel remained as the operator with the cheapest rates in the Kolkata circle after Uninor closed their operations in the region. The operator's cheap rates attracted a lot of people, and its cheap 3G rates helped Aircel in becoming third largest operator in Kolkata within a short span of time.
