And this will continue going forward. Airtel has been focusing on improving the network and this is going to help them for sure to win the customers back.

The uptrend of subscribers for Airtel clearly shows effect of JIO IUC and 4G speeds in Urban areas.

I think it's mostly from Vodafone Idea subscribers not from Jio..

Yes, mostly Vodafone customer moving to Airtel or Jio. Vodafone is NOT serious to improve the quality of services. Just focusing on giving statement to shut the shop.

This uptrend could also be due to Airtel shutting down 3G services in multiple circles. Last week it was shut down in Bangalore

Yes Airtel using their 3G spectrum for upgrading 4G network.. also their 900 mhz network band improving indoor signal quality... BSNL also doing the same thing.. They are also shutting down 3G in multiple circle for 4G but they need more spectrum.

And Vodafone doing nothing after completing the merger process with idea. They already said they don't want to invest money in India anymore.. But personally i want them to stay... It's a British company..

Using Airtel sim card from 2007. But from last 3 to 4 months very pathetic service given by telecom industry. Airtel network is keep fluctuating.
Frequent call dropping, video buffering. Even some tme whatsapp images are also not downloaded.
