    I just ran into an article of data costs... there it basically says, it's cheaper to send a sms from MARS to earth than from you to me :)

    Check this out

    Each text message is 140 bytes. This means that there are 1,024 × 1,024 × 1,024 / 140 = 7.67 million text messages per gigabyte.

    which basically 0.50 cents per message would give a figure of

    3.835 million rupees :baffled:

    we seriously need to start asking for SMS plans as they have in other countries :rolleyes:

    Calculate the tax amount charges by Government.
    At least we could make our minds by thinking that Service provider has some effort to put in order to carry that SMS through towers and lines to mobile device. Anyway Telcos are capitalists :dull:
