Motilal Oswal Report

The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India released data for August 2021. Here are the key highlights:

  • the industry gross/active subscriber base grew nil/2.4 million to 1187 million/992 million, (6 million/4.5 million adds in July 2021). However, the flux from Vodafone Idea Ltd. to other telcos, particularly Reliance Jio, remained steady with improving market share.

  • while gross adds for Bharti Airtel Ltd./RJio were muted at 0.6 million/0.1 million, active subscriber adds were particularly strong for RJio at 4.1 million versus Airtel at 0.8 million.

  • this was potentially led by SIM card consolidation from 0.8 million/1.9 million decline in gross/active subscribers for Vodafone Idea.

  • RJio now leads the active subscriber share at 35.4% versus 35% for Airtel.
