INTRODUCTION
Pakistan Telecommunication Corporation (PTC) has established in December 1990,

taking over operations and functions from Pakistan Telephone and Telegraph Department under
Pakistan Telecommunication Corporation Act 1991.
This coincided with the Government's competitive policy, encouraging private sector
participation and resulting in award of licenses for cellular, card-operated payphones, paging and,
lately, data communication services.
Page | 10
In 1994, the PTCL becomes the company limited (Pakistan Telecommunication Company
Limited) by issued six million vouchers exchangeable into 600 million shares of the PTCL in two
separate placements. Each had a par value of Rs. 10 per share. These vouchers were converted
into PTCL shares in mid-1996.
In 1995, Pakistan Telecommunication (Reorganization) Ordinance formed the basis for

PTCL monopoly over basic telecommunication sector in the country. It also paved the way for
the establishment of an independent regulatory regime. The provisions of the Ordinance were lent
permanence in October 1996 through Pakistan Telecommunication (Reorganization) Act.
The year 2006-07 in the telecom sector was marked by the phenomenal growth in the
mobile sector in Pakistan, which doubled its subscriber base to 60 million. The teledensity
increased from 26% to 40%, helping to spread the benefits of communication technology across
the country. PTCL ’s mobile phone subsidiary Ufone’s subscriber base grew by more than 87%,
from 7.49 million to 14 million. The year also witnessed the entry of major telecom companies,
most notably China Telecom and Singtel, into market.
The privatization of the company was completed in the FY06, following the purchaser of
26% ‘B’ class ordinary shares by Etisalat International Pakistan L.L.C. EIP took over
management control on 12th on April 2006.
In short PTCL has been working vigorously to meet the dual challenge of telecom
development and socio-economic uplift of the country. This is characterized by a clearer
appreciation of ongoing telecom scenario wherein convergence of technologies continuously
changes the shape of the sector.

CENT RAL BACKGROUND
The telecommunications industry is at the forefront of the information age²delivering voice,

data, graphics and video at ever increasing speeds and in an increasing number of ways. Whereas
wire line telephone communication was once the primary service of the industry, wireless
communication services and cable and satellite program distribution make up an increasing share
of the industry.
The largest sector of the telecommunications industry continues to be made up of wired

telecommunications carriers. Establishments in this sector mainly provide telephone service via
wires and cables that connect customers premises to central offices maintained by
telecomm urinations companies. The central offices contain switching equipment that routes
1content to its final destination or to another switching center that determines the most efficient
route for the content to take. While voice used to be the main type of data transmitted over the
wires, wired telecommunications service now includes the transmission of all types of graphic,
video, and electronic data mainly over the Inter net.
These new services have been made possible through the use of digital technologies that provide
much more efficient use of the telecommunications networks. One major technology breaks
digital signals into packets during transmission. Networks of computerized switching equipment,
called packet switched networks, route the packets. Packets may take separate paths to
their destination and may share the paths with packets from other users. At the destination, the
packets are reassembled, and the transmission is complete. Because packet switching considers
alternate routes, and allows multiple transmissions to share the same route, it results in a more
efficient use of
telecommunications capacity as packets are routed along less congested routes. Wireless
telecommunications carriers, many of which are subsidiaries of the wired carriers, transmit
voice, graphics, data, and Internet access through the transmission of signals over networks
of radio towers. The signal is transmitted through an antenna into the wire line network.
Page | 12
Other wireless ser vices include beeper and paging services. Because wireless devices require no
wire line connection, they are popular with customers who need to communicate as they travel,
residents of areas with inadequate wire line service, and those who simply desire the convenience
of portable communications. Increasing numbers of consumers are choosing to replace their
home landlines with wireless phones.
Wireless telecommunications carriers are deploying several new technologies to allow faster data
transmission and better Internet access that should make them competitive with wire line
carriers. One technology is called third generation (3G) wireless access. With this technology,
wireless carriers plan to sell music, videos, and other exclusive content that can be downloaded
and played on phones designed for 3G technologies. Wireless carriers are developing the next
generation of technologies that will surpass 3G with even faster data transmission.
Another technology is called ³fixed wireless service,´ which involves connecting the
telephone and/or Internet wiring system in a home or business to an antenna, instead of a
telephone line. The replacement of landlines with cellular service has become increasingly
common because advances in wireless systems have provided data transmission speeds
comparable to broadband landline systems.
COMPANY BACKGROUND
Pakistan has made steady pr ogress in expanding telecommunication networks and services
in recent years. In Pakistan this industry had few big giants in the past with PTCL being the
Page | 13
sole provider of landline telephone service in the country. At present the organizations
principal activity is to provide telecommunication services all over the country. It offers both
domestic and international services throughout Pakistan. PTCL also manufactures
telecommunication related equipment.
Pakistan Telecommunication Company Limited had exclusive rights to provide basic

telecom services in Pakistan till the end of year 2002. With the announcement of Deregulation
Policy by the Government of Pakistan in 2003, PTA has issued licenses for basic telephony to the
private sector in Pakistan who will be competing PTCL, the incumbent. From the humble
beginnings of Posts & Telegraph Department in 1947 and establishment of Pakistan Telephone
& Telegraph Department in 1962, to this very day, ours is a story of commitment and vision.
PTC set sails for its voyage of glory in December 1990, taking over operations and functions
from Pakistan Telephone and Telegraph Department under Pakistan Telecommunication
Corporation Act 1991. This coincided with the Government's competitive policy, encouraging
private sector participation and resulting in award of licenses for cellular, card-operated
payphones, paging and, lately, data communication ser vices.
Pursuing a progressive policy, the Government in 1991, announced its plans to privatize PTC, and
in 1994 issued six million voucher s exchangeable into 600 million shares of the would-be PTCL
in two separate placements. Each had a par value of Rs. 10 per share. These vouchers were
converted into PTCL shares in mid- 1996.
In 1995, Pakistan Telecommunication (Reorganization) Ordinance formed the basis for PTCL
monopoly over basic telephony in the country. It also paved the way for the establishment of an
independent regulatory regime. The provisions of the Ordinance were lent permanence in
October 1996 through Pakistan Telecommunication (Reorganization) Act. The same year,
Pakistan Telecommunication Company Limited was for med and listed on all stock exchanges of
Pakistan
Since then, PTCL has been working vigorously to meet the dual challenge of telecom
development and socio-economic uplift of the country. This is characterized by a clearer
Page | 14
appreciation of ongoing telecom scenario wherein convergence of technologies continuously

changes the shape of the sector. A measure of this understanding is progressive measures such as
establishment of the company's mobile and Internet subsidiaries in 1998.
As telecommunication monopolies head towards an imminent end, services and infrastructure

provider s are set to face even bigger challenges. Pakistan also entered post-monopoly era with
deregulation of the sector in January 2003. On the Government level, a comprehensive
liberalization policy for telecom sector is in the offing.
PTCL is in full awareness of the same, and future policies feature a strong conviction of healthy
competition.
The company is in process of enhancing organizational and business proficiency through

vertical integration and horizontal diversification. At the same time, cross-national ownerships,
operations and partnerships are being evaluated with a view to developing and diversifying the
business.
RESTRUCTURING OF PTCL
The governments efforts to restructure and privatize PTCL have been on-again off-again
since1991. It had an offer in the late 1990s for 26 percent equity, reputedly totaling $3 billion,
butheld out in negotiations and ultimately missed the unique global market window at that time.
Since then, it has had difficulty attracting potential buyers.
Investors have been concerned about political risk, and appropriate support from the government
Page | 15
to transform the utility into a commercially-oriented corporation. With fortunes rising in the local
telecom sector, the government hoped to make privatization of the company a landmark deal for
broader reform of the economy. A successful deal would demonstrate the governments increasing
support for market capitalism and, it was hoped to, boost anemic levels of direct foreign
investment.
PTCL and the government were contemplating different strategic options for restructuring. Plans
were vetted for both a geographic and functional split of operations. Analysts believed the most
likely scenario is a break-up into three new companies, tracking with the firms largest business
units: local, long distance and mobile. This approach mirrors the policy environment fashioned
for new competitive entrants. From the government perspective, breaking up PTCL prior to as
ell-off will help curtail the market power of any one single service provider, thereby stimulating
competition.
Unbundling the sale was also likely to increase revenues for the government. The risk, of course,
was that the mobile company, PTML (branded as ³Ufone´), was disproportionately more
attractive than the other businesses. According to AKD Securities, PTML's contribution to
PTCL's total revenues was expected to rise to 12.5% over the next five years í and was assumed
to contribute 39% of PTCLs overall revenue growth. Future growth of mobile, both in terms of
subscribers and net revenues, was considered to almost certainly outstrip demand for fixed line
services. The target was to sell up to a 26 percent stake in PTCL; the government held 88 percent
of $2.6 billion, and then any lowering of bid price in the revised agreement approved by the
cabinet in March. The official documents state that the accumulated bidding price in the revised
bid came down to $2.205 billion against the original Etisalat bid of $2.599 billion, said a report in
the Gulf Today.
The PTCl privatization agreement with Etisalat allegedly inflicted a further loss of billions of
rupees to the national exchequer besides unprecedented concessions offered in the long term,
Page | 16
indirect conflict with Article 30 of the Public Procurement Rules 2004, it said. By far, the
PTCLhas been the highest profit earning state-owned company with real-estate assets worth
billions ofrupees across the country including commercial plazas, residential colonies and
exchanges. According to the government documents, the Share Purchase Agreement (SPA) of the
PTCLwith Etisalat lapsed in September 2005 after the non-payment of the dues by the winner
bidders. After further negotiations with the Etisalat management, the government agreed to
additional concessions and modifications to the transaction structure offer
VISION
To be the leading Information and Communication Technology Service Provider in the region by
achieving customer satisfaction and maximizing shareholders' value'.
The future is unfolding around us. In times to come, we will be the link that allows global
communication. We are striving towards mobilizing the world for the future. By becoming
partners in innovation, we are ready to shape a future that offers telecom services that bring us
closer.

Products and Services
PTCL Landline
Page | 26
For local calls the code used is non-STD. For calls to other cities (e.g. Karachi to Lahore) the
code is called STD. For International calls the code used is ISD.
Dialing System
When dialing on landlines, calls made within cities are considered local calls. Calls to other cities
(e.g. Karachi to Lahore) are considered long distance calls and are metered according to distance.
(e.g. When dialing to Lahore from Karachi you have to dial the code for Lahore then followed by
the number of the destination, therefore you dial 0423-XXX-XXXX ). For local calls, you just
dial the local number. For international calls, you dial "00" followed by the country code. (e.g.
For calls to the UK from Pakistan you dial 00 - 44 - XXXXXX ).
PTCL V-fone
It is a product which is wireless. We can use anywhere in Pakistan.
Internet and web browsing is also its feature. It is under CDMA
Ufone
Ufone (Pakistan Telecom Mobile Ltd) a wholly-owned subsidiary of PTCL commenced its
operations on 29th January 2001 as a GSM 900 service provider. Since the outset, it has
expanded its coverage and customer base at a rapid pace and established itself as one of the
leading cellular service providers in Pakistan. Ufone is now considered to be one of the most
active, aggressive and innovative players in the mobile sector of Pakistan.
The growth of the cellular industry is a direct result of the successful implementation of the
telecom deregulation and cellular mobile policy by the Ministry of IT and Telecommunications
(MOIT&T) and the support, guidance and timely enforcement of regulatory process by the
Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA).

Privatization
The growth of the cellular sector in Pakistan can also be attributable to good governance policies
of the government of Pakistan and the Privatization Commission. In April 2006, Emirates
Telecommunication Corporation, which is commonly known as Etisalat, has assumed
management control of Pakistan Telecommunication Corporation Ltd – part of the $2.6bn deal to
buy a 26% stake in PTCL. The successful privatization of PTCL, and consequently Ufone, is
hailed as ushering in a new era for telecommunications in Pakistan.
Now, under the management of Etisalat, Ufone will concentrate on customer needs and benefits
and is more determined than ever to be the leading cellular player in the market. Ufone has been
known for providing superb propositions and quality service to its customers. With the new
expected investment, Ufone can now aggressively expand its network coverage.
Key Accomplishments
Ufone has always played a pivotal role in the development of the cellular market in Pakistan. For
the most part, it has been a step ahead in introducing innovative products to the market. Ufone
was a pioneer in launching the GPRS services and Multi-media Messaging Service (MMS) in
Pakistan, and lead the way in introducing GPRS international roaming and prepaid international
roaming for these services in the Pakistani market.
Performance
As mobile users in the country have reached over 28 million at a very rapid pace, Ufone has
maintained itself as the 2nd largest cellular operator in Pakistan with a subscriber base of around
6.5 million and a market share of nearly 25%. Ufone has seen a subscriber growth rate of over
200% in the last year, and since the start of 2005 Ufone added nearly 5 million subscribers onto
its network. A remarkable achievement indeed, especially considering the fact that two new
international players also entered into the market in 2005. Subsequently the growth in subscriber
base caused a healthy trend in revenues which have doubled.

Brand
While keeping its tradition of being the trend setter in the industry, Ufone changed the image of
mobile phones from a luxury only affordable by the elite, to a necessity affordable by the
common man. Since its inception, Ufone has positioned its brand for masses. In keeping with the
upcoming competition and market dynamics, Ufone increased its focus on the youth segment
(which comprises 50% of the population), with the Prepay brand. By designing market focused
products, Ufone’s brand team launched aggressive campaigns, which further increased the brand
equity. The new brand image gained huge popularity amongst the targeted market. A recent
marketing survey conducted by a prominent marketing research company showed that Ufone has
considerably increased its brand visibility and image. Ufone’s Prepay brand is now considered to
be one of the most favored brands by the youth market and is followed by other mobile operators
launching their respective brands for the youth market.
International Coverage
Ufone provides International Roaming facility with more than 150 international operators across
79 countries. Ufone has GPRS roaming agreements with several international operators and also
provides prepaid roaming facility to selective destinations.
Customer Service
Ufone is proud to have an efficient and friendly customer service through 21 company-owned
Sales & Customer Service Centers and nearly 250 franchisees across the country. The outlets are
able to service the customers with innovative solutions, and are empowered with Web based
franchise management systems. Ufone is poised to face the ever increasing challenges of the
market and is confident it will attract new customers. It has the ability to retain its existing
customer base with a high level of customer satisfaction via optimum network service and a 24
hour call center facility.

Network Coverage
Ufone has always believed in a solid commitment to growth, security and reliability. Therefore,
Ufone has always balanced its expansion efforts and quality of service. With a total current
investment of $400 Million, Ufone has network coverage in more than 260 cities and towns and
across all major highways of the country.
Ufone has been instrumental in the growth of the cellular market in Pakistan. It is a company
committed to excellence. Under the new vision of Etisalat and with the support and collaboration
of its employees and vendors, Ufone aspires to be the best in the market by offering customer
focused products and a quality service and sales network.

Comments on the Organizational Structure
Page | 38
The structure of the organization is very good in my opinion.
Departments and their Working
The PTCL Organizational structure needs to be formalized on emergent basis.
FINANCE WING STRUCTURE
At this level there is one head SEVP (Finance) who controls the functions of
FINANCE, ACCOUNTS, and REVENEU with the assistant of EVP in their respective within the
Region, Director Accounts has Senior Revenue Officers in his area of Finance Jurisdiction on
Division Level. The Senior Revenue Officer, usually the head of Finance Division and Revenue
Officers then supervised on District level.

The Revenue Officers on District Level
In view of the challenging scenario PTCL has to take bold steps regarding its
organizational structure in order to demonstrate that PTCL has set-up arms-length
relationships among the staff. There should be separation of Finance Wing from the
Engineering Wing. Finance Wing should give liberty to take the decision in their favor.
Management has to take the strategic decisions, the clear and institutionalized
arrangements.

FINANCE & ACCOUNTING SYSTEM OF PTCL
Page | 41
The PTCL FINANCE & ACCOUNTING system is actually divided into three wings.
1- FINANCE
2- ACCOUNTS
3- REVENUE
1) FINANCE
The SEVP (FINANCE) is concerned with the makeup of the all type of financial
decisions especially in the context of acquisition, financing and management of all assets with
some goal in mind. The EVP (Finance) with the General Manager (Finance) extend their
expertise in the decision making process.
2) ACCOUNTS
Here the SEVP (Finance) is once again concerned by heading the EVP(ACCOUNTS) and
General Manager (Accounts) to deal with all Accounts Decision. In PTCL the Finance and
Accounting are so correlated but the difference between finance and Accounting is the method of
Funds Recognition and the decision making. In the Accounting the Director Accounts in the
PTCL Regions assist the higher management.
3) REVENUE
Here the SEVP (Finance) is once again concerned by heading the EVP (Revenue) and
General Manager (Revenue) to deal with all Revenue matters. One Director Revenue within the
Region assist to implement and control the inflow of Revenue and Reconcile it with the PTCL
Headquarters Islamabad.

CAPITAL EXPENDITURES
INSTALLATION OF NEW EXCHANGES
Expenses of installation of new Exchanges are the major capital expense of PTCL because
PTCL purchases the new telephone exchanges from France, Italy, Germany and China. So
heavy cost is to be paid for purchasing process in order to proper margin. Each exchange
having different capacity and due which each Engineer should has to be trained accordingly
so expenses rises on purchasing of new Telephone Exchanges. This is the main expense of
PTCL.
EXTENSION OF EXISTING EXCHANGES
The extension of the existing exchanges is the dire need as the density of the population is
increasing day by day and in order to fulfill the basic communication and fill the communication
gap PTCL has to extend its normal Telephone Exchanges in accordance with the demand and per
paid connection. So PTCL sustain heavy expenses on the extension of exchanges.
Page | 44
MINOR EXPENDITURES
INTERNAL AUDIT AND TECHNICAL INSPECTION
The PTCL has sustained huge amount in context of internal audit both Accounts and Technical
from various agencies. For example M/s Ferguson conduct both internal audit and external audit
and payment made to auditors in the expenses of the company.
ADMINISTRATION AND CONTROL EXPENSES

is need of induction of a financial analyst in one region or if there is need of an Engineer then
transfer and posting order can be issued and traveling and training expenses could be realized to
employees.
SALARIES OF STAFF
The monthly salary of the staff is rest with the approval of PTCL H.Q Islamabad. PTCL is
spending lot of amount on the salaries.
FINANCE SYSTEM OF PTCL

Page | 45
PTCL has magnificent finance structure; it is basically Product Oriented organization so

here, the Revenue is the Life Blood as such for any other profit seeking organization. So we
should have isolated the Revenue from Finance side or either we should consider the Finance in
the context of Revenue.
Finance activities can be evaluated in terms of PTCL’s basic financial statements

analyzing through
Finance planning
On PTCL HQ Islamabad, SEVP (Finance) is, who with the concurrence with the CEO for
making all the Finance Planning that’s way the PTCL has to inject the money in order to boost up
the business and in order to complete the stiff competition faced in the telecomm sector. Before
taking any decision regarding financial planning the draft could be presented before the Board of
Governors. In this section there is need of financing either in the WLL (wireless local loop) sector
or wire-line or mobile operator services.

So there are many experts in order to keep the eye watch on the PTCL infrastructure, for example

machinery on the Regional level.
Managing the PTCL’s financial structure
PTCL financial structure is in the safe hands the basic qualification for the post of
Assistant Accounts Officer is MBA (Finance) and for the SEVP (Finance) the incumbent should

Department worked during internship and specific/leading

contribution made.
In the beginning they gave me a brief introduction of all the aspects related to their field
of business, their products, changes in products. A general overview of PTCL was given in other
words. Moreover, I learned how things work in a practical environment, challenges and problems
faced as I have mentioned.
More specifically the project assigned to me during the internship was the sales analysis
of PTCL-V Services Packages, a product of PTCL. The major department in which I did
internship was Interconnection Revenue Department. The prices of the PTCL-V devices were
reduced during the period which had a positive impact on sales. I was assigned the task of
analyzing the impact of change in these prices on the overall income and other service packages of
PTCL-V.
PTCL V- fone (WLL Ser vice) was a major area of focus for PTCL during the year. A
few prominent measures taken in this area during the year were launching of free home
delivery service. No line rent package was launched in June 2010. In June 2008, 30 seconds billing
was introduced contributing as an effective customer retention tool. PTCL has expanded the
network to provide coverage in all large and small cities including over 10,000 villages in rural
areas of Pakistan.
Problems Identified
PTCL is a well organized company and operates efficiently in this competitive environment so it
Page | 54
was difficult for me to identify the problem. But nothing is perfect in this world there is always a
room for improvement. According to my limited knowledge following were the problems and
challenges that can directly affect the efficiency and performance of the bank or in other words
improvement need be made in the following areas:
 There is a lack of balance in incentives given to old and new employees. New employees
are paid more which de- motivates the old ones.
 Lack of proper computer skills in old employees is another problem.
 System problems do arise at times and customers have to wait for the system to
work properly.
 Some employees misuse the resources of the company.
 Employees were not very effective in communication among themselves. They

didn’t share the experience with each other and didn’t care about the other
employees. Some employees lacked the trust in management.
 Ineffective public dealing was another major problem which I experienced during
my internship. y Regularity and punctuality shows the character of big and good
executives. But this problem is also faced by the overconfident employees.

Conclusion
Page | 72
With employee strength of 30,000 and 5.7 million customers, PTCL is the largest
telecommunications provider in Pakistan. PTCL also continues to be the largest CDMA operator
in the country with 0.8 million V-fone customers.
The company maintains a leading position in Pakistan as an infrastructure provider to

other telecom operators and corporate customers of the country. It has the potential to be an
instrumental agent in Pakistan’s economic growth.
PTCL has laid an Optical Fibre Access Network in the major metropolitan centres of
Pakistan and local loop services have started to be modernized and upgraded from copper to an
optical network
On the Long Distance and International infrastructure side, the capacity of two SEA-ME-
WE submarine cable is being expanded to meet the increasing demand of International traffic.
Pakistan Telecommunication Corporation (PTC) has established in December 1990,

taking over operations and functions from Pakistan Telephone and Telegraph Department under
Pakistan Telecommunication Corporation Act 1991.
This coincided with the Government's competitive policy, encouraging private sector
participation and resulting in award of licenses for cellular, card-operated payphones, paging and,
lately, data communication services.
In 1994, the PTC becomes the company limited (Pakistan Telecommunication Company
Limited) by issued six million vouchers exchangeable into 600 million shares of the PTCL in two
separate placements. Each had a par value of Rs. 10 per share. These vouchers were converted
into PTCL shares in mid-1996.
In 1995, Pakistan Telecommunication (Reorganization) Ordinance formed the basis for

PTCL monopoly over basic telecommunication sector in the country. It also paved the way for
Page | 73
the establishment of an independent regulatory regime. The provisions of the Ordinance were lent
permanence in October 1996 through Pakistan Telecommunication (Reorganization) Act.
The year 2006-07 in the telecom sector was marked by the phenomenal growth in the
mobile sector in Pakistan, which doubled its subscriber base to 60 million. The teledensity
increased from 26% to 40%, helping to spread the benefits of communication technology across
the country. PTCL ’s mobile mobile phone subsidiary Ufone’s subscriber base grew by more than
87%, from 7.49 million to 14 million. The year also witnessed the entry of major telecom
companies, most notably China Telecom and Singtel, into market.
The privatization of the company was completed in the FY06, following the purchaser of
26% ‘B’ class ordinary shares by Etisalat International Pakistan L.L.C.
EIP took over management control on 12th on April 2006.
No doubt P.T.C.L having the monopoly in providing the Land-Line Telephone

Connection in Pakistan and its playing its role magnificently. In current scenario P.T.C.L has
increases its Revenue quite dramatically and probably that as soon as this organization has
become privatized it will flourish its revenue in better manner.
PTCL should immediately change its Finance upper level of hierarchy and should stream
line in the good manner.
PTCL should also encourage the Billing On line system that each and every customer
should have to pay his/her bill on line basis.
The system of E-PAYMENT which although exist in PTCL finance system but there is
need of improvement this facility.
The image of PTCL being leading Telecom Providing is not good in the eyes of common
customer especially there are lot of complaints about the including the bogus local calls in the
Page | 74
monthly bills of various customers. PTCL should also provide the detail of local calls made from
any Land Line Number which would be provided in Micro level to the customer.
Faulty Telephone connection should be Fault Free within 24 hours in order to maximize
the Revenue, as Revenue of PTCL should sacrifice at the cost of Faulty Telephone.
PTCL should make Customer Care Centers in remote areas
If I have to express my experience of internship in PTCL I would briefly say:
PTCL is a good Organization in the way that anybody can join it for his/ her long-term
career. Overall working environment is comfortable. Management of branch cares a lot of its
employees and considers them as the Asset of PTCL. Behavior of senior executive of bank is
very polite and they are caring about the individual’s career and their growth.
PTCL needs innovative service offerings — currently it doesn’t even offer bundles or a
single bill.
Has been unclear about its IPTV and WiMAX plan and strategy (trials are in progress)
Overall PTCL still behaves as a monopoly … it has to change its attitude. At a minimum,
avoiding billing errors and providing competent and courteous service to its customers is essential
if PTCL wants to show that it is transforming itself to a competitive company which cares for its
customers.
It is said that the best assets of a company go home to their family in the evening. Can the
culture of PTCL be changed to a performance and service-based organization? According to the
latest director’s report from PTCL the “organization is being revamped”. Only time can tell the
impact.
However management is very demanding about the targets but good reward at the
achievement of assigned targets is awarded.
Page | 75
Employees at PTCL are quite efficient. Its employees have to bring their org among the
list of good. Therefore, they work more than their working hours and it is all according to their
will. It also shows their loyalty, commitment to organization.
Employees are given the benefits like bonus, gratuity funds, loans, increments, and
medical.
All the customers are entertained individually. Same kind of behavior and attention is
given to all the customers. Getting ideas for improvement from customer side is a new idea and
that is working very well in PTCL. All the customers are asked to fill a suggestion form and the
standards of the org are improved through them.
Prioritizing its product portfolio in line with its corporate and consumer needs and wants
the org are committed to develop products that give more value to its customers in both the
sectors.
In PTCL, all the work is done on computers. All the entries are made in computer.
Balance is fed into the computer. This increases efficiency of the org.
During my internship training I gathered information regarding how a successful org

operational aspect decorticated with the practical.
I found my internship training at PTCL to be a very rewarding experience. The training

was beneficial because it helpful me to aware a real life working environment.
So far my learning is concerned; all the employees at branch were quite cooperative. They
helped me to understand the activities of a org to possible extent. Their good attitude gave me
more confidence to learn more and to ask if I have any query in my mind. Besides there ever
going activities they never get irritant by my questioning. I had made an honest efferent to present
the working & operation of PTCL in simplest way.

I feel pleasure that I have really gained a lot during 6 weeks & enjoyed working with
experienced cooperative & intelligent staff.
