Jio Becomes The Largest Wired Broadband Service Provider In India

Ever since its inception way back in 2000, the state-owned telecom company Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) has dominated the wired broadband sector in India. Fast-forward to 2022, around 20 years later, Reliance Jio has surpassed BSNL in terms of subscribers base to become the largest fixed-line broadband service provider in India.

In a recent monthly report by the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI), Jio now has the most number of subscribers for its fixed-line broadband service JioFiber in the wired broadband segment. The telecom giant went from 4.16 million subscribers in October 2021 to 4.34 million subscribers in November 2021. Jio’s total broadband subscribers base stood at 432.96 million in November 2021.
