Bharti Airtel (“Airtel”), one of India’s leading telecommunications service providers, today announced that it has 3.8 million customers enjoying 5G service in the state of Rajasthan. The company has successfully deployed 5G service across all cities and districts in Rajasthan reflecting a promising shift towards offering next-generation mobile connectivity.
Airtel has registered a significant increase in active 5G users in the past 6 months in Rajasthan. The company has extensively rolled out its network, making its services available across the state, making it more convenient for customers to upgrade to 5G. From the architectural sites of Jaipur, Jodhpur and Jaisalmer to tranquil sceneries of Udaipur, Airtel continues to complete its rollout across Rajasthan.
Commenting on the milestone, Marut Dilawari, CEO – Rajasthan, Bharti Airtel
said, “We are making significant strides in building the network infrastructure required to facilitate widespread adoption of 5G in Rajasthan. We express our gratitude to our valued customers who have upgraded to enjoy the power of unlimited 5G service at no additional cost. Our tireless efforts are to keep our customers consistently connected to the state’s fastest, most reliable, and cutting-edge network.”
The rapid deployment and adoption of 5G in the country is due to multiple factors including rapid network enhancement, accelerated 5G rollout and increasing availability of 5G devices. In order to make affordable devices accessible to users, Airtel also collaborated with Poco to offer sub-10K 5G smartphones, which helped to grow its overall 5G user base in the country. Retail expansion in the region to increase physical format of stores has further augmented consumer connect to help customers upgrade conveniently to 5G service.
