According to TechTree, to access the service, subscribers need to log on to Planet Hutch at www.hutch.in; and click on Infoservices. The service costs around Rs 99 for 3 months, and Rs 30 per week.
The question here is, who would wanna pay money for the encyclopedia when you have access to Google and WikiPedia ? You might need GPRS/Data Service to access Google and WikiPedia but then it comes down to the price and value per price as to whether Rs 99/month for encyclopedia is cheaper or paying GPRS service fees/month is cheap.
