Multiple Mobile Connection Among Indian Population

It sounds unbelievable to me that one-third of Urban Indians own more than one mobile connection. Is it simply the name the connection is purchased with or actual ownership is not known. The former is plausible since many people buy their parents or kin mobile phones with their names. Here are some interesting facts

Total mobile connections : 235 million urban and 108 million rural
Total mobile users : 155 million urban and 95 million rural
Average connection per user : 1.5 urban and 1.1 rural
Mobile penetration : 45% urban and 12% rural
Tele-Density : 69% urban and 13% rural
