Bharti has been aggressively outsourcing a range of IT and BPO functions over the past several years. Nokia Corp handles some of its wireless network management as part of a three-year, $125m deal signed in August 2005. And in 2004 Nokia won a $275m contract to supply and manage its radio network hardware.
Also in August 2005, Bharti transferred its call center work to Hinduja TMT Ltd, IBM Daksh Ltd, Mphasis Ltd, and TeleTech Services in a $230m contract.
