NTC The 4G Leader

NTC has leapfrogged its competing operators by large. Comparing the numbers, the state telco leads Ncell by a whopping 13 lakh, 37 thousand, 1 hundred, and 89 4G customers. Although, the toe-to-toe competitors for mobile services in the country, NTC has enviously raised its 4G user base over the past few months.

Against Smart Cell, NTC maintains an unparalleled difference that is beyond comparison, to say the least. NTC leads Smart Cell in 4G by over 7.3 million.

The ruthless expansion, data packs, and the launch of VoLTE have contributed to its 4G lead over other operators. And as we move by months, it’s likely that NTC maintains its lead as the new user base narrows, and the state telco has taken its 4G coverage further.

NTC is also preparing the launch of the 5G trial which gives it an advantage in the mobile services over others.
