Operators like Reliance Jio, Vodafone Idea and Adani Data Neworks have skipped the interim allocation as 0.15% of AGR can still be a large sum to pay.

Airtel is the only operator to have opted for E-band spectrum for 5G backhaul needs

The first phase of 5G launch is scheduled to happen in 13 cities including Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Chandigarh, Chennai, Delhi, Gandhinagar, Gurugram, Hyderabad, Jamnagar, Kolkata, Lucknow, Mumbai, and Pune.

It's not like they can't. They are doing it in the US for instance. It's just that their priorities lie elsewhere, and this push is required.
