New telecom operator Videocon is looking to ramp up subscriber base and expects to achieve a 'fair market share' in the services areas it operates in.

The company, which has licences in seven out of the 22 telecom areas, has operations in only four circles so far. In September, it had 4.33 lakh subscribers.

"Videocon Telecom's first objective is to attain a fair market share (FMS) on subscriber base in our operational circles," Videocon Telecom Director and CEO Arvind Bali told PTI.

He said the FMS amounts to 12.5 percent subscriber share in Haryana, Punjab and Madhya Pradesh where there are total of eight operators, and 10 percent market share in Gujarat where there are 10 mobile service providers.
