| Abstract: | Penetration of mobile services is not uniform across the country. While some areas of the country have experienced
exponential growth, the other areas, especially economically disadvantaged, have very low mobile density. This mobile
divide is a serious concern for government, policy makers and telecom operators. Predicting growth of subscriber base
across regions of the country is critical for all stakeholders. The study aims to better forecast the penetration of mobile
services across regions of the country so that their effect on economic development can be further explored and policies can
be formulated to reduce the mobile divide. |
