"Global recovery has started in some countries. As such this had not affected the telecom sector which is growing," Deputy CEO of Bharti Airtel Sanjay Kapoor told reporters here. Bharti Airtel Lanka, a subsidiary of Bharti Airtel, is one of Asia"s leading integrated telecom service providers with an aggregate of 100 million customers, a company statement said. Bharti Airtel has been featured in Forbes Asia"s Fab 50 list, rated among the best performing companies in the world in the Business Week IT 100 list 2007, and voted as India"s most innovative company in a survey by the Wall Street Journal, Kapoor said.
