I think vodafone's scene might be different from other tech companies. Vodafone as a company hasn't been doing well for some years now. Plus there was some story about govt of India's tax, that put them on verge of bankruptcy, iirc

What kind of a tax is this? Is this the old fines they’re yet to pay?
