After supreme court cancelled 122 telecom license back in 2012, incumbent operators ended their price war and consistently engaged in hiking both voice and data tariff. Even after launch of 4G service by many operators data rates remained same as before. However, operators have now started reducing the tariff silently and has declared Jio's entry will disrupt the market.

Do you think the good days of low cost calling is coming back?
