Airtel, has launched its 4G services in Jharkhand with services live in Ranchi, Hazaribagh, Godda, Lohardaga, Pakur, Jamtara, Giridih and Barhi.

To ensure higher network capacity and superior customer experience, Airtel 4G services in Jharkhand have been rolled out using dual spectrum bands of 1800 MHz (FD LTE) and 2300 MHz (TD LTE).

We have also installed special demo zones and kiosks at all the Airtel retail stores to facilitate easy 4G SIM upgrades for customers.”
