The retail network operators have not done a bulk price reduction. MTS has reduced prices of Internet gadgets in retail to purchase in April – then it reached 30%. The operator representative Dmitry Solodovnikov says that it is connected not with a stable ruble, and with a new business strategy: MTS refused short term earnings on the sale of equipment in the name of permanent income on mobile Internet.
