Airtel onboards 2 million customers on its 5G network in Mumbai within 7 months of launch

The company's 5G service, Airtel 5G Plus, is available in key business hubs such as BKC, Nariman Point, and Lower Parel, as well as at Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus (CST), Mumbai Metro line, Mumbai Monorail, and all railway stations across the Western, Central, and Harbour lines.

Customers visiting popular tourist spots such as the Gateway of India, Colaba Causeway, Marine Drive, Bandra-Worli Sea-link, and Juhu Beach can also enjoy super-fast 5G speeds.

Airtel also said that it has connected residential communities and educational campuses in the city, such as the University of Mumbai, IIT Mumbai, and TISS. The company's 5G service is currently available in more than 3,500 cities and towns across India. Airtel added that it recently exceeded the 10 million unique customer mark on its 5G network nationally and is poised to cover every town and key rural area with its 5G service by September 2023.

“In the last one year, Airtel has demonstrated the power of 5G with a host of powerful use cases that will change the way customers lead their lives and do business. From India’s first live 5G network in Hyderabad to India's first private 5G network at the BOSCH facility in Bengaluru to partnering with Mahindra & Mahindra to make its Chakan manufacturing facility, India’s first 5G enabled auto manufacturing unit, Airtel has been at the forefront of 5G innovation,” the statement read.

Airtel has created 5G experience zones in all of its retail stores across the country. Customers can walk into any of the company's 70 stores in Mumbai to experience Airtel 5G Plus.
