Analytics solutions, especially churn analytics, is the key focus area for the company in the Indian market, with demand for such capabilities likely to increase in the coming months with the impending arrival of 3G.But competition in the analytics segment is cut-throat, with players such as Oracle Corp competing hard for the service provider business.
