Network Description

Punjab Aircel, operating in the Punjab region of India, once stood as a prominent mobile network under the larger Aircel umbrella. This entry covers the specifics related to its operation within India, situated geographically in Asia. Aircel, while active, played a significant role in the competitive Indian telecom market, offering a range of mobile services to consumers. Characterized by the Mobile Country Code (MCC) 405, identifying it as a network in India, and the unique Mobile Network Code (MNC) 812 assigned specifically to Punjab Aircel, helped to distinguish it from other mobile networks operating within the same territory. The allocation of these codes is crucial for devices to correctly identify and connect to the appropriate network.

Comparing Aircel (including Punjab Aircel) with competitors like Airtel, Vodafone Idea (Vi), and Reliance Jio, highlights the diverse landscape of mobile network operators (MNOs) in India. Each network aimed to capture market share through different strategies, ranging from pricing models to network coverage and technology adoption. While Aircel ultimately faced financial difficulties and ceased operations, its presence contributed to the overall development and availability of mobile telecommunications services in the Punjab region and across India. The MCC/MNC combination 405-812 remains historically significant within the context of India’s mobile network evolution.
