That apart, in other developments, Bharti Airtel gained the most number of subscribers in January, with 1.65 million new wireless users, while Reliance Jio added 0.68 million users, data from the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (Trai) showed on Monday.
Airtel’s mobile wireless market share continued to inch up in January, at 33.61 per cent. The overall number of mobile phone connections in India increased by 0.55 per cent in January. The high growth rate was due to Trai changing its subscriber reporting norms from January onwards, which now require 5G fixed wireless access (FWA) subscriptions to be counted as wireless subscribers, as opposed to wireline subscribers, as had been the case so far.
