Telecom services provider Bharti Airtel, which
has operations in 20 countries across Asia and
Africa, today said it had crossed the 300
million customers mark across its operations.
The milestone includes customers across
mobile, fixed line & DSL, and DTH services, a
press release from the company said.
"Bharti Airtel, which began operations in 1995,
reached the 100 million customers mark in
2009 and crossed the 200 million mark in
2012. The latest 100 million customers have
joined the Airtel family in less than two years,"
it said.
According to it, the company ranks as the
fourth largest mobile service provider globally
and second largest globally outside of China.
“This milestone underlines the strength of our
operations, which is one of the largest on a
global scale. It is also a tribute to the ‘Airtel’
brand which is trusted by customers in 20
countries, making it the largest global
consumer brand out of India," Mr. Gopal
Vittal, Managing Director and CEO (India and
South Asia), Bharti Airtel, said.
"Today, telecom is at the cusp of
transformation, which, going forward will be
driven as much by the force of technology as
by the changing demographics in emerging
markets across Asia and Africa. Accelerated
data consumption by the youth is going to be
the underlying story. I am confident that Airtel
will continue to be at the forefront of this
future growth story and continue to delight
customers by adding value to their lives," he
