Reliance Jio Finally Ready for GigaFiber Launch After a Year-Long Wait

The biggest wait in the telecom industry of India has been of Reliance Jio’s fibre-based broadband service, Reliance Jio GigaFiber. The Mukesh Ambani led telecom operator, Reliance Jio is finally expected to hold the commercial launch of its FTTH service, GigaFiber on August 12, 2019. Notably, this is the same day as the Annual General Meeting (AGM) of Reliance Industries, the parent company of Reliance Jio. To recall, last year it was during this event only that Reliance Jio has announced the arrival of GigaFiber and had kick-started the registration process in 1,100 cities of India. Now finally, after a year, in the 42nd Annual General Meeting of shareholders, the GigaFiber service will be commercially launched.

Last week, Reliance Jio also announced its quarterly financial results. Along with it, the company also said that the beta trials of Reliance Jio GigaFiber are in their final stages and noted that they were kicked off days before the announcement of the services. In a media statement, Mukesh Ambani, Chairman of Reliance Industries had said, “Beta trials of JioGigaFiber services have been very successful, and the entire bouquet of smart home solutions would soon be rolled out to targeted 50 million households and beyond.”
