Given how increasing data consumption has transformed life for Indians, 5G could be the next disruptor in the telecom space. In many ways, it is the future of connectivity. With its share of big-ticket investments, Airtel is poised to be a leader in this technology. With the expansion of its 4G network, Airtel users will enjoy a much faster and efficient network. With lower latency, higher data speed could give consumers a smoother mobile gaming and video streaming experience across the country. This investment plan came on the back of increased revenues figures last quarter. Airtel reported a significant rise in its consolidated net profits and an increase in average revenue per user (ARPU). With increased voice and data consumption, it left behind Jio and other telecom operators. Given the way Airtel is improving its network strength, it is setting a high benchmark for other telecom players.
