There is some strange issue, both vi SUPER volte and SUPER vowifi are not working for the past 2 days. Tried all troubleshooting but no use.

Update: This issue got fixed after performing "Reset Baseband settings" on the phone. Not sure what triggered the issue in the first place, but at least found a fix even if temporary.

As it fails to finalise a deal with investors, Vodafone Idea (Vi) is likely to miss the December deadline to raise fresh funds, The Economic Times (ET) reported. However, it is in talks with the Export-Import Bank (Exim) of the US to raise capital for procuring equipment for its 5G network.
The delay in plans to raise fresh funds is crippling the telco's plan to launch its 5G services. Earlier, Vi had announced that it is aiming to raise up to Rs 20,000 crore from a mix of debt and equity. Notably, Vi is the only private telco in India to roll out its 5G network.

Nine months after converting the dues worth Rs 16,133 crore of Vodafone Idea payable to the government on account of spectrum fee, into equity, the department of telecommunications (DoT) has asked the department of investment and public asset management (DIPAM) whether some portion can be offloaded in the market.

As part of the dues conversion process in February this year, Vodafone Idea issued 16.13 billion equity shares at Rs 10 each to the DoT. On November 20, the company’s share price touched a 52-week high of Rs 15.07. Sources said that since the conversion was done at a price of Rs 10, the DoT wanted to confirm from DIPAM whether a portion can be sold in the market as it will yield revenue to the government. At the current share price, the government’s 33.14% stake in the company is close to Rs 24,300 crore, a near 51% return on its investment.
