Airtel Boosted Network ahead of IPL

Beyond OTT subscription benefits, Airtel has also strengthened its network across all IPL stadiums in India to ensure a seamless experience for customers. More details can be found in the story linked above.

Though ET Telecom reported on Monday, March 24 that Airtel has yet to announce any IPL-specific offers this year, Airtel has already launched IPL-specific packs and a plan last week.

“I believe Airtel should have also brought something to counter this, but these new SIM additions could be temporary and may become dormant after the IPL is over. They may further dilute ARPU, I suspect, and hence, Airtel might have stayed away,” explained the unnamed analyst cited by ET Telecom.
