After launching 4G services across 9 circles – Mumbai, Delhi & NCR, Kolkata, Karnataka, Kerala, Haryana, Gujarat, UP (East) and West Bengal, Vodafone today announced that it will launch 4G services in 8 more circles – Assam & North East, Maharashtra & Goa, Odisha, Punjab, Rajasthan, Tamil Nadu (including Chennai) and UP (W) in 2,400 towns by March 2017.
Earlier this year Vodafone India modernized and upgraded its entire network across the country to Vodafone SuperNet, for seamless network experience that would allow their customers to remain connected at all times, for their voice and data needs.
Announcing this next phase of 4G rollout, Sunil Sood, MD and CEO, Vodafone India said:
We are actively working to expand 4G coverage in our circles across the country to offer our hundreds of million customers world-class data experience. We have enhanced our 4G roll out plans following the spectrum auction in which we emerged as the biggest winners. Utilising this spectrum won, we will make available Vodafone SuperNet 4G services nationwide in 2400 towns and across 8 additional circles by the end of this fiscal instead of 1000 towns as announced earlier. Our investments in creating a modern and scalable network and partnering with leading global technology infrastructure service providers, is enabling aggressive network rollout in terms of pace and scale of deployment.
