Aircel is targeting strong customer acquisition during the current fiscal as it was business as usual despite an amalgamation dialouge is held with Reliance Communications.
"It is like business as usual for us and there is no impact due to reported amalgamation talks with RCom. We are looking at similar growth as last year in new customer base during the current fiscal," Aircel regional manager (east) Anil Gupta said today.

Aircel said its call drop levels were much lower than government limits and continuously adding new sites and in the current year 700-800 more sites could be added.
