Airtel celebrates 3.5M 5G customers in West Bengal

Kolkata, April 9 (UNI) Bharti Airtel (Airtel), one of India’s leading telecommunications service providers, on Tuesday announced that it has 3.5 million customers enjoying 5G service in the state of West Bengal.
The company has successfully deployed 5G service across all cities and districts in West Bengal reflecting a promising shift towards offering next-generation mobile connectivity.
Airtel has registered a significant increase in 5G users in the past 6 months in the state. From the iconic architectural marvels of Kolkata to the breathtaking vistas of tourist hotspots like Darjeeling, Airtel continues to complete its rollout across the eastern state, it said.
Commenting on the milestone, Ayan Sarkar, CEO West Bengal & Odisha, Bharti Airtel, said, "We are making significant strides in building the network infrastructure required to facilitate widespread adoption of 5G in West Bengal. We express our gratitude to our valued customers who have upgraded to enjoy the power of unlimited 5G service at no additional cost. Our tireless efforts are to keep our customers consistently connected to the state's fastest, most reliable, and cutting-edge network.”
The rapid deployment and adoption of 5G in the country is due to multiple factors including rapid network enhancement, accelerated 5G rollout and increasing availability of 5G devices. In order to make affordable devices accessible to users, Airtel also collaborated with Poco to offer sub-10K 5G smartphones, which helped to grow its overall 5G user base in the country. Retail expansion in the region to increase physical format of stores has further augmented consumer connect to help customers upgrade conveniently to 5G service.
