I can testify to this. India has one of the cheapest data in the world

India is a population of 1.3bn or so with stable electricity.

The operational cost which is low and highly competitive can be easily spread across billions of people and still be highly profitable.

you all dont get it, you cant convert Rupee directly to Naira, its better we use dollars. 5Naira is not the proper conversion value

Lolx. Indians can't be sidelined in the IT community, most Nigerians even get to know one or two things from them. Now I see it's partly 'cause they have almost unlimited access to resources.

KrazyDave16:

Kindly explain why the US, which is way better both in I.T and IoT, has a stronger currency got a more expensive data packages than India, an upcoming tech country then.

The environment of business in the USA isn't the same with India.

it is.
5 rupee = 0.067 United States Dollar.
$0.067 = #25.74

Cost of production for ISPs in India and Nigeria are not the same

Also put in the lack of electricity and infrastructure in the country.Telecommunication companies here spend millions or even billions on disel everyday

The problem is directly proportional to the government not the ISP

What stops them from going solar like their India and Chinese counterpart? They prefer to be buying fuel at high cost. The lack of innovation over here is the cause.

I can validate Data over is even cheaper then 5 naira per GB.
Depends Service providers and plans.

Yes that is extremely cheap 4G data. Because there are so many service provider and cutthroat competition, Customer is king over there

Honestly, if it were same over here, our rate of development would've been out of this world. We have the brains.

Minjim:


And that 2gig ei finish in 4 days

I use 1.5gb in 4 days, it's validity is 7days. It costs 300naira and I was thinking I'm lucky for using MTN

The environment of business in the USA isn't the same with India.

Minimum wage per hour in US is higher than what they pay in India too I think

See this data extortion is due for a protest. See what i have used below just a few days into the month. Now imagine how much i have burnt doing nothing but uploading my house plan designs on instagram only. I say we have to protest!!!! Lets go to their offices wether in island or or wherever it is located.

Actually its Rate of Development, Good Educational System, Massive Industrialization , R & D and Mass production, that makes things economical

We can just dream on, i dont see this happening in this continent even in next 50 years. We all have to bear this.

The environment of business in the USA isn't the same with India.

The US got a far better business environment but data is still expensive.

India's working environment isn't exactly friendly, but data is cheap.

An average worker in the US earns more than workers in India but still India is still getting the better of it, down to the point a poor household can afford unlimited data and watch and download HDR content if they can, the US it's another story, with takeovers and ISP there trying to be monopolistic, which is what our country is copying.

Sorry it's more than true.


I was in India last year and I actually paid a little less than 400 rupees for a package which gives me unlimited voice calls across all of India.

I was in New Delhi, Bombay and one of Thier far flung industrial towns, Ahmedabad or something.... I didn't have to load airtime....Ah

Now on top of that the package gave me 1.5 GB daily for 28 days....

This is an Airtel package.

Do not just take Google it on Airtel India site.

We are being raped but we do not know and even when we know it stops on the social media and nothing happens

How are you being raped?

Look at cost of doing business?

Look at multiple taxation.

Your FG just recently introduced 7% VAT which made multichoice for example to double their prices for subscription.

Lagos too is adding their own taxes.

IMO, it looks like the ISP here are only interested in beating the competition in how much profits they make yearly instead of how many customers they can retain...

Environment of business does not necessary mean minimum wage, there are other factors that are considered. See PESTEL analysis for more info

Nigerians are rich na..even if data goes as high as 2k for 1gn people will still subscribe..same as if rice goes for 89k per bag people will still eat rice. this country Taya me
