Vodafone Idea Lost a Whopping 5.6 Million Users in December 2020, Airtel Gains 4 Million: Trai

This post first appeared on TelecomTalk Read more at: https://telecomtalk.info/vodafone-idea-airtel-trai-december-data/336840/, Vodafone Idea Lost a Whopping 5.6 Million Users in December 2020, Airtel Gains 4 Million: Trai

The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (Trai) has released Telecom Subscription Data as of December 31, 2020, in which it revealed that Vodafone Idea lost a whopping 5.6 million users. Vi ended 2020 with an overall subscriber base of 269 million. The trend of Reliance Jio slow subscriber additions remains the same; The Mukesh Ambani-led telco added just 478,917 users in the last month of 2020, whereas its direct rival Bharti Airtel added just over four million new users. The data released by Airtel said it had 336 million users at the end of 2020, whereas Jio said it ended last year with a 410.8 million user base. BSNL lost 2.5 lakh existing users.

Trai Monthly Subscription Data for December 2020: What It Shows

The report further said that Airtel has the highest number of active subscribers amongst all the telcos. Trai says Airtel has 338.71 million total subscribers, of which 328.87 million users (97.10%) are active. Vodafone Idea is second on the list, with 90.26% subscribers active on its network. Out of the total subscriber base of Jio, just 80.21% of subscribers are active.

As for the market share, Jio leads the chart with 35.43% share, followed by Airtel with 29.36% share and Vodafone Idea with 24.64% share. BSNL ended the year with a 10.29% market share. The total wireless subscribers decreased from 1,155.20 million at the end of November 2020 to 1,153.77 million at the end of December 2020. Out of the total wireless subscribers, 975.43 million users were active.

Talking about the Mobile Number Portability (MNP) data, Trai received a total of 8.20 million requests in December 2020. It seems like a large number of Vodafone Idea and BSNL customers are porting out to Bharti Airtel.

The data reported by telecom operators during their quarterly performance results are almost similar to the data released by Trai in this report. Vi said it lost just two million subscribers in Q3 FY21 and started adding new 4G customers. The struggles for Vi are not over yet, but the telco is slowly getting back on track. Airtel seems to be best positioned right now.

BSNL Intros FRC 47 for Prepaid Users With 28 Days Validity and 14GB Data

BSNL FRC 47 Prepaid Plan for New Users

State-run Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) has introduced a new First Recharge (FRC) of Rs 47 for the prepaid subscribers. The FRC 47 is applicable only to new customers who are performing their first recharge. The plan comes with voice calling, data and SMS benefits for 28 days. It is the cheapest unlimited combo prepaid plan offered by any telecom operator in India right now. The telco might have introduced this recharge to boost the new subscriber additions. Ahead of the much-awaited 4G launch, BSNL is looking to increase the subscriber base that’s currently hovering between 110-120 million. Going by the subscriber base, BSNL is fourth on the list sitting below Vodafone Idea and the gap between the country’s third-largest and fourth-largest telcos is huge. As of December 31, 2020, Vi subscriber base stood at 269.8 million.

BSNL FRC 47 for New Users: Benefits Detailed

Starting with the freebies to be offered with FRC 47, it comes with unlimited voice calling benefit (on-net/off-net/local/STD) in Home LSA and national roaming, including MTNL roaming areas- Mumbai and Delhi. It also comes with 14GB of data and 100 SMSes per day. BSNL says the freebies will be valid for a period of 28 days which is a good thing. So at just Rs 47, new BSNL customers will be able to enjoy an unlimited combo plan.

BSNL says other terms and conditions are according to the premium per minute plan PV 107. This means the FRC 47 offers an initial plan validity of 100 days, after which customers will have to perform another recharge to keep their BSNL SIM card active. The FRC 47 has been introduced as a promotional offer applicable till March 31, 2021.

At the moment, it is confirmed that the FRC 47 will be available for new users in Chennai and Tamil Nadu telecom circles. However, we are expecting it to be launched in other circles as well very soon. Do make a note that users can avail the plan starting from February 20.

Should You Get FRC 47?

Absolutely yes. BSNL is the only telecom operator in India to provide competitive plans. For example, the private telcos Bharti Airtel and Vodafone Idea offer First Recharge (FRC) plans starting at Rs 97, but we have BSNL’s FRC 47 that’s priced on the lower side with much better benefits. Reliance Jio charges Rs 99 towards the JioPrime subscription and customers will also have to perform an additional first recharge on top. Jio’s existing and new users have the same plans.
