OSLO, Nov 18 (Reuters) - Norwegian mobile operator Telenor (TEL.OL) said it had trimmed its accumulated capex guidance for the first five years of its operations in India by about 4 billion crowns ($712.6 million) while maintaining other targets.

Telenor, which is due to launch in India later this year, said its rollout combined with better terms from equipment vendors will reduce capex requirements.

"The earlier communicated peak funding of 155 billion rupees is now expected to be somewhat lower," Telenor said in a statement, adding that the reduction would be around 30-35 billion rupees.

"The market share ambition and other financial targets, including EBITDA break-even approximately three years after launch and operating cash flow break-even approximately five years after launch, are still valid," it added.

Telenor added that India's Foreign Investment Promotion Board's formally approved Telenor to increase its shareholding in its Indian venture Uninor to 67.25 percent.

Telenor says it is the second largest foreign operator in Asia following Vodafone (VOD.L). It has operations in the Nordics, Eastern Europe and across Asia.
