MSN India Launches Live Search Maps

MSN India has launched it’s live search maps product and now supports 9 cities – Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Pune, Ahmedabad, and Jaipur (as well as integration with national highways/roads).

Live maps supports driving directions, business listing/PoI searches as well as local search – though the data quality is nothing great to talk about.

Many (or rather most) of the listings do not have accurate lat/long and I believe, these are MSN India’s initial attempt to get the local presence rolling (MSN recently partnered with asklaila for it’s city centric site).

What’s your opinion?
