Infrastructure sharing refers to the sharing of mobile towers, powers, shelters and more, among two or more telecom companies. The realization of such sharing will help the telecom industry and country in many regards. Such as lowering of cost to new telecom operators, faster roll out and eventually resulting in improved telecom services in different parts of the country.
