Tata Teleservices Ltd, commonly referred to as TTSL, is the license holder for pan India GSM operations. TTSL has been headquartered out of its South Bombay office but is now moving its headquarters to Noida in an attempt to increase revenues from lower lease / operations cost.

Furthermore, nearly 2000 employees across all levels and operations areas have been asked to leave. Most people were given the option of relocating to Noida or to leave the organisation. This move by senior management is in an attempt to reduce costs across the board.
