Sify Technologies Limited (NASDAQ: SIFY), headquartered at Chennai,
India, a leader in Managed Enterprise, Network, IT and Applications
services in India with global delivery capabilities today announced
that Sify.com will facilitate the introduction of 3 new India
exclusive price-points for purchasing Skype Credit. These new
price-points of Rs. 30, Rs. 60 and Rs. 120 will be available
exclusively on the website of Sify at http://www.sify.com/skype.
Skype Credit can be used to make calls from Skype in India to
mobiles and landlines across the world. Until now, Skype users in
India could only buy Skype credit starting at Rs. 300. Now, Skype
users can start from Rs. 30, providing further opportunities to
utilize Skype for connecting with friends and family abroad.
Earlier this year, Skype partnered with Sify to introduce local
payments through Debit Cards and Net Banking in addition to Credit
Card options.
Commenting on the new Skype offerings, Mr.
Kamal Nath, Chief Executive Officer, Sify Technologies
Limited, said, "Sify is looking to help Skype tailor its
offerings to the Indian consumer. To this end, these new
price-points help to bring Skype to a much broader consumer
audience in India."
"We are always looking to find ways to make it easier for Skype
users in India to purchase Skype credit and subscriptions through
our continued partnership with Sify. We are committed to ensuring
that Skype is accessible and provides an easy way for users in
India to connect with friends and family." said Judd Harcombe, Head
