Just last week I heard news that TRAI was going to bump the minimum speed for broadband from 256kpbs to 2Mbps, I was overjoyed but I don’t think so it’s going to happen, TRAI is now justifying that 256kpbs is an acceptable speed to define broadband in India.
According to TRAI even in US the FFC defines speeds in excess of 200kbps as broadband.
In 2008 Look forward to get broadband via new mediums like DTH, 3G, Wifi and WiMAX. Currently most of the broadband connections in India are via DSL then comes cable, here is an excellent report (PDF Format) by TRAI on recommendations on Growth of broadband in India.

Dear Ranjit,
May I correct it is not kpbs instead say it as, kilo bytes per second kbps.
I may be wrong readers kindly confirm from other reliable sources.
Thanks
Hi Ravi,
Yes you are correct its kilo bits per second (kbps) 256 kbps transalates to about 32 kb/sec kilo bytes per second.
