Note that we don't yet know the pricing of these plans. Apart from this, by the end of June 2025, BSNL is also expected to deploy 1 lakh 4G sites. The company is focusing on gaining back its market share from the private players. BSNL roped in BCG (Boston Consulting Group) and that has helped the company in making many decisions related to branding and launching of services that have a good potential for business in the future.
The Q-5G is a branding that seems over-the-top, but it is something that got people talking and ensured BSNL engaged its customers. In hindsight, it was a decent strategy and it also stands out in the market.
