Indian telecommunications major Tata Communications Ltd has signed yesterday a two-year internet protocol (IP) deal with Malaysia's Axiata Group, one of Asia's largest telecom operators, to build and manage a new IP-based network in Asia Pacific region.

The deal will extend to markets including Dialog Telekom in Sri Lanka, PT XL Axiata in Indonesia, Celcom Axiata in Malaysia and MobileOne in Singapore, Tata Communications said in a filing to the National Stock Exchange. 

Financial details of the tie-up have not been disclosed.

With Tata Communications' IP-based network, Axiata will be able to provide lower latency and better service support for real-time applications such as web browsing, downloads, Facebook, Twitter and mobile video telephony.

Byron Clatterbuck, president of global carrier solutions, Tata Communications commented: ''Our leading global infrastructure and IP capabilities will ensure that Axiata's customers have the best-in-class experience when using applications and services via function-rich, internet enabled devices.''

''This significant partnership represents the start of a long-term relationship that will benefit businesses and consumers in Asia,'' Clatterbuck further said.
