Outperforms Sensex Market returns: -17.8% For the country's largest telecom services provider, revenues from international operations account for a little over a third its consolidated revenues. Bharti Airtel's international footprint extends from Bangladesh and Sri Lanka in South Asia to West and Central Africa. Africa is far the biggest international market for the mobile company, with operations in 17 countries. The acquisition of Zain's business in Africa in mid-2010 helped it to diversify its India risk, given its leading volume and value market share in India. Besides, the African continent offers higher revenue per user (ARPUs) of around $7 against $4.4 in in 2011. The initial projections, however, are taking time to materialise and Bharti fell short of reaching its revenue and Ebitda ( earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) target for FY13 at $5 billion and $2 billion, respectively.
