Nortel Networks has bagged what is being billed as the world's largest tender for cellular services. Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited has awarded Nortel a contract estimated at $500 million (about Rs. 2,500 crores) to expand its GSM/GPRS digital wireless network in the south and south zones of India. This expansion is expected to be completed in the first half of 2005, according to a Nortel release.
