MUMBAI: In the next one year, 4G coverage in India will exceed that of 2G, Mukesh Ambani, chairman and managing director of Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL), predicted on Wednesday at the first edition of the India Mobile Congress in New Delhi.
Reliance Jio Infocomm, the telecom unit of RIL that Ambani has described as the world’s biggest start-up, began its commercial operations last year with 4G services that attracted 100 million subscribers in less than six months. To start with, Jio offered a combination of free Internet access and free voice calls.
