Anil Pande, Head Product Development , Reliance Communications said, "India is the fastest growing market in the world with a large mobile customer base and is also the world's highest receiver of remittances. In this context we believe M-commerce will be the next big thing. Our association with ICICI Bank brings a paradigm shift in the way domestic Money Transfer business is conducted in India, which is predominantly being done through the banks and other agencies."
