Aircel came back to Kerala with one of the lowest tariff ever introduced in India. But the service is still available only in two cities Trivandrum and Palakkad which is said to expand soon to other cities. Finding new subscribers will be a hard task for Aircel as people no longer consider Aircel a reliable operator since its unexpected exit from circle two year ago.
