A year after launching 5G services in India, Airtel on Saturday said it has over 50 million unique 5G subscribers on its network.
The company’s 5G services are available across all districts in the country now except districts in Pakistan occupied Kashmir, Naxal affected areas of Chhattisgarh and the islands of Lakshadweep.
In October 2022, both Airtel and Jio launched 5G services in the country.
A year after the launch, the total 5G subscriber base in the country has crossed over 100 million.
Last month, Jio also announced that its 5G subscribers are over 50 million.
We are thrilled at the speed of adoption to 5G by millions of our customers and we are reaching this milestone earlier than planned,” said Randeep Sekhon, CTO at Bharti Airtel.
“The expansion continues at full speed and I am sure, we will continue to rapidly multiply as we work towards nationwide coverage and enable all our customers to enter the 5G age,” Sekhon added.
Currently, the companies have not announced any tariffs for 5G services and are offering unlimited 5G on current recharge plan of `239 and above.
