18 May 2023 Evaluate

Bharti Airtel is planning to complete 5G rollout in urban areas and some key rural pockets this year and expects the investment in networks to hover around Rs 28,500 crore. The company has stopped making capacity expansion in 4G network as the company is seeing traffic offload of up to 30 per cent in areas where 5G has been launched.

The company's capital expenditure in India more than doubled to Rs 8,989.4 crore in the March 2023 quarter from Rs 4,276.7 crore a year ago. The majority of the capex of Rs 6,647.1 crore was deployed in the mobile business as the company continues to build up a pan-India 5G network. The company exited the fourth quarter and the fiscal year 2023 with the highest industry ARPU of Rs 193.

Bharti Airtel is a leading integrated telecommunications company with operations across Asia and Africa.
