Network Description

---

Mumbai IDEA, operating in India (Asia & Middle East), is a notable mobile network provider formerly serving the bustling metropolis of Mumbai. Identified by its Mobile Country Code (MCC) 405, placing it within India's telecommunications landscape, and its Mobile Network Code (MNC) 799, IDEA offered a range of services to its subscribers. While IDEA as a standalone brand ceased to exist following the merger with Vodafone India to form Vodafone Idea Limited (now known as Vi), the network infrastructure originally associated with the Mumbai IDEA network continues to play a role in Vi's consolidated operations. This legacy includes contribution to the overall network coverage and capacity within Mumbai and potentially other parts of Maharashtra.

Before the merger, IDEA Cellular was known for its competitive tariffs and expanding 4G footprint, directly competing with other major Indian telecom players like Airtel and Reliance Jio. The 405 MCC signifies India's allocated range, shared amongst the various mobile operators, while the 799 MNC specifically distinguished IDEA’s network operations within that framework. Examining the historical performance of IDEA's 799 MNC network can furnish insights into the evolution of mobile services in Mumbai and the competitive dynamics that shaped the Indian telecommunications market during that period. Further research could explore the specific technologies deployed by IDEA in Mumbai, and how this infrastructure was integrated into Vodafone Idea’s broader network following the merger.
