Airtel catches up with Reliance Jio, prepares for stand-alone 5G service launch

Bharti Airtel has announced a significant development in its 5G network expansion, positioning itself to rival Jio in the race to deliver advanced 5G services across India. The company has begun re-farming its existing mid-band spectrum, specifically the 1800, 2100, and 2300 MHz bands, to accommodate the surging traffic demand as more customers transition to its 5G network. This strategic move aims to enhance browsing speeds and indoor coverage, ensuring a superior 5G experience for its users.
