This is an area of interest - what internet access is like generally in Mumbai and other major cities in this country.
While not at the light speed levels or Yahoo DSL, Comcast or Roadrunner, internet access is quite reliable and ubiquitous.
If speed is not a criteria and you just want to ssh into remote boxes, then mtnl rules. especially the unlimited 700/month package.
Currently also using tataindicom 512 kbps at 1575 with a 2 GB data transfer limit. Its ok. The point here is that it is far better than what it was 1 yr ago and will only get better. So there is hope. Once reliance officially launches their broadband, it would trigger another price/quality war.
Ignorance is Strength. What you don't know cannot hurt you.
