100Gbit seems a bit small to me, compared to say, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_Cross_Cable

Interesting, are you talking about one of Tata Comm's POPs, Tata Communications as a whole? Or Tata Group as a conglomerate encompassing all its subsidiaries?

And what was/were your "bad" experience(s)?

It's easy to say "Anyone who's worked with them knows", but this is a discussion forum
