Quick Commerce Services

The rise of quick commerce has caused a significant decline in the sale of food, beverages and confectionery in urban centers, as 52 per cent of physical store retailers reported experiencing the drop, according to a report by global consulting firm PwC.

What's this 6am-12pm data 1.3GB? Why this Kolaveri D? I am hitting 150Mbps at my location now on 4G with no data being deducted. I wish 5G never comes to my place if this is the case. 40Mhz contiguous band 41 spectrum will do. I will happily use 4CA on Moto device with snapdragon 6 Gen 4.
i just did a speedtest after 7am today and it deducted 700mb or so for 5G speedtests

Now im worried if i should even use 5G on Vi anymore ,i will have to wait a few days then i will visit vi store or something

Looks like that for now. Though Vi now has enough spectrum availability in Band 41 to increase its holding to 40 MHz pan India similar to Jio and Airtel's holdings in Band 40.
Waiting just for that. 40Mhz goodness will give 300Mbps alone. After moving to SA in three years on n41-n78 will give close to 500Mbps under loads. Keep 1-3-8 for 4G and bolster band 1/3 in next auction to 15-20Mhz if possible from 5-10Mhz. Force Jio to buy extra 30Mhz in n78 PAN India. Once Jio makes band 3 20Mhz PAN India(I don't know whether it's possible or not), it's game over for Vi as well as Airtel. It has made huge difference in Pune. Nobody wants to use Vi+Airtel in Pune despite as fast as Jio. I don't know what they did in Pune but band 3 20Mhz is making huge difference. Jio 4G is superfast at 200Mbps.

Chennai ain't getting 5G bruh. Vi is sleeping here. Meanwhile they're swapping out Nokia and installing Ericsson in random Gujarat rural where swap is not necessary
It's Vi priority circle. How come swap is not necessary. Airtel still lacks rural coverage in South Gujarat. Band 5 is not there. Band 3 range is not sufficient. Airtel sticks to revenue generation for the deployment. Airtel is equal to Verizon.


Whenever 100Mhz N41 radio will be out or whenever Vi will have funding for that, Vi will rollout n41-n78 5G directly for Chennai and Bangalore.

Airtel Axis Bank Credit Card

Just a minor correction: Not every Axis credit card gives 25% discount on Airtel payments. It's only the Airtel Axis co-branded credit card that gives the cashback. This card has very less approval rates these days due to high number of applications and are only given to select customers now. I have even shared my on-boarding (approval) experience for this card here: Airtel Axis Bank Credit Card

It has other benefits too such as 10% cashback on electricity, water, LPG gas etc. bill payments.

I have been using this credit card from last year and it's totally worth the hype. I don't recharge Airtel wifi since I have no connection yet and getting good amount of cashbacks with rest of the eligible payments. With an Airtel wifi connection, the cashback will be further increased/doubled. 🥰
Hope airtel axis card is discontinued. Correct me if I am wrong.

That's why it's unable to latch on network or there is some another technical reason?
Test spectrum isn't open for retail users to latch onto during testing phase, it will become available to end users only after official allotment and commercial deployment.

So Tamil Nadu and Karnataka will have 4G on band 41 before Vi.
Looks like that for now. Though Vi now has enough spectrum availability in Band 41 to increase its holding to 40 MHz pan India similar to Jio and Airtel's holdings in Band 40.

Discussion How has the experience been on JioHotstar for you after it's merger with JioCinema?

1. PQ of various movies / Tv shows under HBO, paramount+ & Peacock has not been upto standard. No HDR / Dolby Atmos/ Dolby 5.1 in many of the shows.

2. There was a tab " All movies " & " All shows" under each of the HBO, Paramount+ and Peacock hubs, but in Jiostar , these tabs are not available. So, searching the list of movies / shows under these Hub is not possible. This is what, I feel the most is missing.

Categorisation of content under the above-mentioned hubs is totally horrible.

Even that is enough bro. We can continue to use Jio / Airtel and threaten for Port out to VoId to get retaining benefits from big players. BSNL has better plans, but Airtel / Jio doesn't care much, if we say, we are moving to BSNL.
Retaining benefits, only applicable if you are using postpaid. No more benefits on Airtel and Jio postpaid. Pay to play. That's how Airtel has been able to reach 250 ARPU on 4G front. It's interesting to see how Airtel progress now when BSNL and Vi 4G presence keeps increasing.

20 MHz of Band 41 (2500 MHz) has been assigned to BSNL in the 8 circles of Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Andhra Pradesh, Gujarat, Karnataka, Maharashtra and Tamilnadu for testing purposes with validity up to 6th August 2025. The same has been updated in the spectrum holding chart.
Thank you for the update. That's why it's unable to latch on network or there is some another technical reason?

So Tamil Nadu and Karnataka will have 4G on band 41 before Vi. BSNL has updated 4G Map for Chennai I guess.
