In India, private operators - Reliance and Tata Teleservices (thus, Virgin Mobile too) offers dual mode operations, i.e. CDMA & GSM services. Now HFCL & Videocon as per brand sharing agreement they have dual mode operation in Punjab. BSNL & MTNL are also in CDMA and GSM mobile services.

Though T24 and Virgin Mobile India are often termed as MVNO, these are actually services of TTSL. TTSL sells their services using these brand names. So neither Virgin Mobile India nor T24 is a true MVNO. In India there is no policy for MVNO till date.
