“There is no change in acquisition plans (as of now),” Bharti Airtel chief executive Manoj Kohli told reporters here on the sidelines of a telecom summit.

The company was in merger talks with South African telecom major MTN, but the $23-billion deal did not materialise due to regulatory hurdles.

Kohli also said there was not much change in the number of subscribers in November.
