Top telecom operator Bharti Airtel in April added more active subscribers than
Reliance Jio Infocomm for the first time since the latter’s launch in September, said analysts who cautioned that the 4G entrant may continue to face challenges in user additions.
Sunil Mittal-led Bharti Airtel notched up 2.6 million active subscribers, according to ‘voice location register’ or ‘VLR’, in April compared to Mukesh Ambani-owned Jio’s 400,000 active (VLR) customer adds, said brokerage Goldman Sachs, analysing data released by Telecom Regulatory Authority of India ( Trai ).
Voice location register is a key metric indicating the number of subscribers actively using mobile services.
According to Goldman Sachs, data subscriber additions (3G/4G) continue to see an uptick for Bharti Airtel. With Jio starting to charge, it sees this number likely to stay strong for Airtel in the coming months as customers shift usage back to incumbents that have cut tariffs in response to Jio’s offers.
