About AIRCEL

Aircel Maharashtra & Goa, operating under Mobile Country Code (MCC) 405 and Mobile Network Code (MNC) 804, was a prominent mobile network operator serving the regions of Maharashtra and Goa in India. Part of the Aircel group, it provided 2G and 3G services to a significant subscriber base. Aircel, as a whole, aimed to provide affordable data and voice services, focusing particularly on the youth market in India. Sadly, the company faced financial difficulties and filed for bankruptcy protection in 2018, eventually leading to the cessation of its services. While operational, within Maharashtra and Goa, Aircel competed with major players like Airtel, Vodafone (now Vi), and Reliance Jio, all vying for market share in a highly competitive telecom landscape. Users who previously utilized Aircel services in the region have since migrated to other providers within India’s dynamic telecommunications environment. The Aircel network utilized its assigned MCC and MNC to uniquely identify itself to mobile devices connecting to its network within Asia & Middle East. The MCC 405 designates India as the country of origin, while the MNC 804 specifically pinpointed the Aircel Maharashtra & Goa network. In countries throughout Asia like India, mobile network codes play a vital role in seamless roaming agreements and network identification. Even though Aircel ceased operations, the historical data related to its MCC and MNC remains relevant for understanding the evolution and complexities of the Indian mobile telecommunications market.
