Bharti Airtel (“Airtel”), India’s leading telecommunications services provider,
today announced the launch of its ultra-fast 5G services in 125 cities. Airtel 5G Plus service is now
available to customers in over 265 cities in the country.
Airtel 5G Plus has three compelling advantages for customers. First, it runs on a technology that has the
widest acceptance in the world with the most developed ecosystem. This ensures that all 5G
smartphones in India seamlessly work on the Airtel network. Second, the company promises to deliver
the best experience – between 20 to 30 times higher speeds than today coupled with brilliant voice
experience and super-fast call connect. Finally, Airtel 5G Plus network will also be kinder to the
environment with its special power reduction solution. Powered by the reliable Airtel network
infrastructure, Airtel 5G Plus will provide superfast access to High-Definition video streaming, gaming,
multiple chatting, instant uploading of photos et all.
Commenting on the launch, Randeep Sekhon, CTO, Bharti Airtel said, “5G has revolutionized the world
of internet, ushering new era of connectivity and communications that will prove to be a game-changer
for the country. At Airtel, we remain committed to delivering the highest quality of network and service
to our customers as we roll-out 125 more cities today. Airtel was the first in the country to offer 5G
services in October 2022, and today’s mega launch is our promise to connect every Airtel customer in the
country with ultra-fast Airtel 5G Plus. Our 5G rollout is on track to cover all towns and key rural areas by
March 2024.”
Airtel 5G Plus service availability will continue to rapidly expand – including service in all towns and
villages in the country soon – as the company is working towards offering nationwide coverage. Airtel is
now offering its 5G services in every major city from the upper northern city of Jammu to the southern
tip of Kanyakumari.
In the last one year, Airtel has demonstrated the power of 5G with a host of powerful use cases that will
change the way customers lead their lives and do business. From India’s first live 5G network in
Hyderabad to India's first private 5G network at the BOSCH facility in Bengaluru to partnering with
Mahindra & Mahindra to make its Chakan manufacturing facility, India’s first 5G enabled auto
manufacturing unit, Airtel has been at the forefront of 5G innovation.
