CyberMedia India Online’s Voice & Data honoured Sunil Mittal, founder and CEO of Bharti-Airtel as the telecom man of the year for 2006. Bharti-Airtel is India’s numero uno mobile carrier. Bharti-Airtel also received the “Top Cellular Services Company” and “Top Fixed Phone Company” award. WOW! They beat long time and India’s favorite landline monopoly company, BSNL. Hard to believe 😉
