Reliance Jio has 94% mobile data traffic share in India while Airtel , Vodafone and Idea Cellular have 2% share each, according to a report by Credit Suisse.
The report studied 2G, 3G and 4G coverage of telecom operators in 30 cities of India, out of which Jio fared well in 80% of cities, the financial services company said. Airtel, Vodafone and Idea had good coverage in 10–30% of the cities.
“We studied network coverage and speeds characteristics across capitals of the larger states and major union territories (30 in total). In our view, we have therefore surveyed a major part of urban India (we believe a significant portion of industry revenues, and an even higher portion of data revenues come from these locations),” the broker said.
The survey used image processing tools to map out areas with high-signal-strength in each of the 30 regions, and used it as a basis to extract telecom operator coverage relative to that of the total industry.
The study cited overloading of network under Jio’s free offer period as one of the reasons for the new entrant’s slow network speeds.
Another report by the company had earlier noted that Jio probably accounts for 35% plus of network capacity in the country.
Out of the 30 cities surveyed, Reliance Jio has its 4G signals present in over 70% of the entire area covered by cellphone signals, and in no city it has a below 30% coverage.
Airtel on the other hand has 70% plus coverage in 22% of the areas surveyed. “In 27% of the areas, Airtel has between 30-70% coverage and in 51% of the area, Airtel’s LTE coverage is below 30%,” the study said.
However, Airtel led with over 12 Mbps, followed by Idea at over 8 Mbps and Jio below 8 Mbps.
The report was compiled on the basis of multiple secondary sources in India and abroad.
