In the recently held auctions by Department of Telecom (DOT) Relaince Jio Infocomm Limited (RJIL) has acquired license to operate in 14 circles in the 1,800 MHz bracket throughout India. The acquisition will expand their reach tremendously and they can give uninterrupted services and data speeds to the users. RJIL won the spectrum in all major circles including Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Andhra Pradesh, Gujarat, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and Kerela. They will provide services in the North-East and Assam as well.
Mukesh Ambani , Chairman and Managing Director, Reliance Industries Limited said: “With this acquisition, Reliance Jio will be the holder of the largest quantum of liberalized spectrum and with the longest residual spectrum life. Reliance Jio’s seamless 4G services using FDD-LTE on 1800 MHz and TDD-LTE on 2300 MHz through an integrated ecosystem, aims to provide unparalleled high quality access to innovative and empowering digital content, applications and services.”
Reliance is again looking like a major force to reckon with in the mobile sector with this procurement. Many reports had stated that the 3G and 4G data prices will come down considerably once Reliance starts its deployment. After this, all eyes will be on RJIL. The dates when RJIL start giving services to the end customers is still unclear, but should be by end of 2014. This will very well be the beginning of a price war in the 3G and 4G space in India, where the end user will benefit the most.
