New Delhi: Bharti Airtel Ltd, India's top mobile services provider, on Thursday launched a fixed wireless service based on GSM technology as part of a plan to broaden the services it offers, reports Reuters.

New Delhi-based Bharti already has a small fixed-line operation and is concentrating only on high margin customers in that sector.

"The fixed-line market in India is currently underserved, largely on account of inadequate infrastructure," Sanjay Kapoor, Joint President for mobility at Bharti, said.

The company plans to progressively roll out the new wireless service across 4,000 towns and neighbouring villages in India.
