Airtel

Bharti Airtel Limited is a telecommunications services company, was founded in 1995. It operates in 20 countries throughout the continents of Asia and Africa. It holds the 4th rank in the list of mobile service providers globally, in terms of subscribers. The brand had nearly 363 million customers in 2016 and offers GSM, 2G, 3G and 4G wireless services. In addition to this, they also offer telemedia services called airtel business and digital TV services.


The public limited company has come up with Airtel mEducation, enabling customers to access education from anywhere around the world. According to a Times of India article, it launched a plan that offers 'free unlimited calls to anywhere in India'. This announcement was made right after Reliance Jio had increased the validity of its 'Welcome Offer'.

As per the analysts, Bharti Airtel will soon come out stronger in the enterprise and undersea cable business and narrow the gap with the Vodafone-Idea combine in mobile service revenue market share (RMS) if the Sunil Mittal-led Bharti Enterprises and the Tatas come together.

Airtel is also testing VoLTE technology across five cities in India and is expected to roll out the technology towards the end of 2017.
