Mahanagar Telephone Nigam Limited (MTNL) operates its business in the geographical confinements of Mumbai and Delhi. However, the government decided that BSNL would now handle MTNL operations due to bad performance over the years. Going forward, BSNL will not just handle the mobile network business, but will also handle the entire MTNL operations. MTNL will continue to exist as a brand, but all the services in the backend will be handled by BSNL.

The state-run telecom operator has been deploying homegrown 4G stack sites throughout India. Upon its last announcement, BSNL had deployed 25000+ 4G sites, and now the wait for another update from the company continues. The speed at which BSNL was deploying 4G has increased as the government is now more focused towards turning BSNL profitable.

According to recent reports, BSNL is set to receive Rs 6000 crore from the government so that it can procure 4G equipment. The state-run telco had already released an advance purchase order of Rs 19,000 crore earlier, but since it had a shortage of cash, it could only place an actual order worth Rs 13,000 crore. So the remaining Rs 6000 crore is being given by the government here.
