Extras talk time and SMS won’t affect telcos' margins


PETALING JAYA: The three-month temporary period where telecommunication companies (telcos) are giving extra talk time and SMS to their prepaid subscribers are unlikely to bite into their margins as both categories have been providing steadily declining contributions to revenue, said M&A Securities.

It said this had been the trend for several years, with declining call and text contributions to revenue in contrast to rising data and Internet usage contributions.
