How The 5G Spectrum Auction Worked Out In India – Jio, Airtel, Adani, Vodafone

This is not a brand new post but I am reposting from my Anchor podcast after 8 months for a reason. Take a look at how the market played out so far. The big bucks that @Jio, #jioplatforms, spent as well as #airtel, on 5G spectrum acquisition was for a reason. Now, 8 months on, deployments are well underway. Both #jio and #airtel are halfway across the country and as planned both will likely be pan-India 5G networks by Dec 2023. A pretty darn good speed of coverage for a massive country of this size. And they didn’t bother too much about Private 5G since that piece was (and still is) under the regulatory radar. Adani did not bother too much and made his call on the parts he wanted. Vodafone did what it could with a full #4G coverage focus and less on everything else. Check this podcast that I put out in Aug 2022 toward the end of the spectrum season, as the battle for 5G airwaves was just coming to a close.
