Jio’s 13.80 million and Airtel’s 10.05 million subscriptions represented approximately 52.7% of the wired total. The other three named providers added 8.29 million. About 29% of the segment was outside the five named providers, using the regulator’s published share. Source 1
The provider mix changes across technologies
Atria and Kerala Vision both appear in the top five for fixed wired broadband. The wider broadband table, which includes wireless services, puts Vodafone Idea in third place. A ranking depends on whether it counts wired, wireless or both kinds of access. Source 1
Wireless access comes in two forms
The regulator separates fixed wireless services, which include 5G fixed wireless and satellite, from handset and dongle connections. In this release it counted 14.77 million fixed wireless broadband subscriptions and 947.30 million mobile wireless subscriptions. These figures describe the release’s December snapshot. Source 1
