RailTel Chooses 3i Infotech for the Wi-Fi Monetization Project

One of the biggest independent telecom infrastructure providers in India is RailTel Corporation of India, a Mini Ratna Public Sector Undertaking (PSU) under the Ministry of Railways. Whereas RailTel has already provided free public Wi-Fi networks, the Wi-Fi Monetization Project will reach more than 6108 railway stations throughout every state, city, town, and district in India.

The super app from RailTel will give users free high-speed internet access as well as simple access to Indian Railways services and information, as well as value-added services like infotainment, e-commerce, education, and premium content offerings. The super app wants to rank among the top in India in terms of users, usage, and time spent. Over 1.1 million different users log onto RailTel’s public Wi-Fi network each day. With the help of this partnership, station Wi-Fi plans to improve the online experience for WiFi users. RailTel and a group managed by 3i Infotech have agreed to a 5-year contract for this project.
