The supposition that government phone cmpanies charge for uncompleted calls
is not correct. Although most of the world's phone companies are
government ownded, the only one that I am aware of that charges
for busy's and no-answers is the Danish phone co, and it is privately
owned

in india, if one makes a person to person call, and the called party
is unavailible, the (government owned) phone company charges a
minimum fee for putting the call through.
