Emtel Launches Broadband Internet Service
Recently Emtel has launch its broadband internet service as advertised at the Infotech
2007. There are two offer: The first one is the Emtel 3.5 G and the second one is data-internet.
I personally do not see much difference about them!
Concerning pricing, this is the worst price for broadband that i’ve seen in mauritius, rather deceiving:
Emtel 3.5G
The prices are as follows:
| Subscription | Monthly Fee (Rs)** | Price for extra 100 Kb (Rs) |
| Tariff 1 Gb | 399 | 0.22 |
| Tariff 2 Gb | 749 | 0.22 |
| Tariff 5 Gb | 1499 | 0.22 |
| Tariff 10 Gb | 2499 | 0.22 |
