BSNL 4G: 93,450 Towers Deployed, Here’s Everything

Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL), a state-run telecom operator, has now deployed 93,450 4G towers across India. This was confirmed by the union telecom minister, Jyotiraditya Scindia. At the curtainraiser event to unveil the theme of India Mobile Congress (IMC) 2025 in Delhi, Scindia said that there’s still a long way to go for BSNL, but things are on track now. IMC 2025 will take place between October 8 to October 11, 2025. This brings BSNL super close to its goal of deploying 1 lakh 4G sites.

BSNL will deploy more 4G sites after 1 lakh sites milestone is achieved. The state-run telecom company will also start upgrading its network to 5G using homegrown telecom equipment, as previously confirmed by the government officials.

Very recently, TCS was given an order from BSNL for deploying 18,685 more sites. These are likely the sites beyond the initial order of 1 lakh sites. TCS is providing BSNL with the homegrown telecom stack and acting as the systems integrator (SI). Further, it will be on TCS to maintain and service the sites for several years.
