PBX companies in India

India is now famous for fastest growing telecom market in the world . But, I think, this ‘telecom market’ mainly means GSM subscribers growth and enviable figures of adding almost 10 million subscribers every month. This figure surely looks impressive. But apart from, GSM or mobile subscribers, PBX market is also growing at around 20% ( estimate by few PBX dealers.)

Though VoIP is not gaining much popularity and has not grabbed any substantial market share in India so far. This is mainly due to government policy of barring VoIP connectivity with PSTN due to security concern. I thought I would try to prepare a list of PBX companies in India. I have divided them into two types, MNC ( Multinational Company) and Indian PBX companies:-

1. MNC branded PBX companies

1. AVAYA GlobalConnect
Most probably, the biggest MNC PBX player in India. They focus more into enterprise business. They have created their own dealer network all over India. They sell many voice networks, unified messaging solutions, call center etc.

2. Domestic Indian PBX companies
After the demise of C-DOT who is said to have revolutionised Telecom industry in India by designing telephone exchange at very low cost, there was a vacuum in switch manufacturer in India. But it seems, recently it has found one Indian PBX company with good R&D and large number of products in Coral Telecom.

It has large clients in BSNL, Indian Railways, government departments, Public Sector units, Defence forces. Head quartered in Noida, India, it has now offices in other countries too.
