Reliance Jio had promised to complete the 5G rollout in every taluka and town in India by December 2023. The company is claiming that it has done so. However, the website still shows that 5G is available in 7,764 cities/towns in the country. The figure has not been updated for quite some time, so the official numbers are unknown.




On the occasion of the Tamil Nadu Global Investors Meet - 2024, Mukesh Ambani, in a statement said, "In December, Jio completed the fastest roll out of 5G, anywhere in the world". Since Mukesh Ambani has confirmed the development on Jan 7, 2024, it will be interesting to see when will the updated numbers reflect on the website of Reliance Jio.
