If the local authorities are not allowing to have overhead cables in the city like on light poles etc then what option do wired operators have ?

Operators like Airtel and Jio wouldn't directly provide wired connections through overhead cables, they pay for right of way and lay the fibers underground.
Only LCOs provide through overhead cables coz they can't afford to pay the municipal corporation for right of way.

So if you applied for Xstream Fiber, then they offered Air fiber?

So if you applied for Xstream Fiber, then they offered Air fiber?

It’s a unified plan for both Fiber and Air Fiber. Actually, it’s marketed as Fiber only, but at locations where OFC is not available, they provide air fiber.

Installation team has come. Will update once it’s completed

 

[Digital Mastermind]

It’s been 12 hours since installation, but the service is not activated.

How long does it take for activation? I was told that by 10pm yesterday it would be activated.

Also I have not been provided with SSID and password

Generally doesn't take up much time. I'd suggest call up your installation guy, specifically the one who showed you the demo speeds on their smartphone and ask right away coz you are end user. Due to all this fiasco I will never ever go for airfiber.
