Bharti Airtel said that it has been rated as India’s fastest mobile network for 2016 by broadband testing and network diagnostic application Ookla . The Sunil Mittal-led telco had also clocked highest average download speed at 8.42 megabit per second (mbps) in January, pipping 4G entrant Reliance Jio ’s network speed that reduced by more than half to 8.34 mbps in January from 18.14 mbps peak speed in December, according to data published on Trai's.

Bharti Airtel’s average download 4G speed doubled in January from 4.68 mbps in December. The telco’s network has shown highest download speed thrice since September, Trai data revealed.

Ookla’s findings are based on analysis of millions of internet speed tests logged on ‘modern devices’ by mobile customers across India using its popular Speedtest app. The results include all mobile tests, regardless of connection technology, the telco said in a statement.

“At Airtel, our constant endeavour is to provide the best possible experience for our customers. We are delighted to receive this recognition from a global leader like Ookla and it is yet another validation of our efforts to build a world-class smartphone network,” Ajai Puri, Director - Operations (India & South Asia), Bharti Airtel said in a statement.

Airtel has been making significant investments towards building a ‘future ready’ network under Project Leap, its national network transformation initiative.

“We are pleased to acknowledge Airtel as India’s Fastest Mobile Network for 2016. This award recognizes Airtel’s commitment to delivering fast speeds and a strong network to their customers across India,” Jamie Steven, COO at Speedtest by Ookla said.

Due to network congestion bhaiya :huh ..
Or may be due to upgradation.
I am using Jio since October 2016 and faced issues with speed only in month of Jan 2017. Now, its back with bang from Feb 2017.
