These reports offer BloombergQuint’s subscribers an opportunity to expand their understanding of companies, sectors and the economy.

ICICI Direct Report

We expect the subscriber addition trend to be mixed for the industry, Industry leader – Reliance Jio is likely to lead subscriber addition with ~15 million net adds in Q2.

On the other hand, Vodafone Idea Ltd. is expected to continue experiencing churn, also impacted by last quarter’s tariff hike for 2G customers, which, in our view, will drive consolidation.

Thus, for Vodafone Idea, we expect subscriber loss of ~6 million.

For Jio, reported average revenue per user is likely to be up 1% QoQ at ~Rs 140 while revenues are expected to see 4.1% QoQ growth at Rs 18,734 crore.

For Vodafone Idea, with ARPU growth of ~6% QoQ at Rs 110, we expect overall revenues to grow 2.1% QoQ at Rs 9347 crore.
