Caltiger is dead. Comments Ranabir 8 Mar 2011 9:43 am: Caltiger was a company which brought internet for common.. I don’t know how and why it is dead, but it is… I was in class 7 that time when caltiger guys came to our school and gave us a floppy containing something , I was not having a computer at my home that time … but one of my senior had it .. so he took it from me and used it .. and then returned it to me.. :) Now I know what he did with the disk and the password page… But whatever happened is happened.. caltiger must rise again.. I would love to support it once again jose 3 Jun 2012 7:56 am: Long live caltiger, it was every indian’s first internet access opportunity.
