Reliance Jio and Airtel collaboration boosts mobile internet speed in India Although this claim is not ours! On the contrary, this is known from the report of Ookla. Recently, the company published the ‘Speedtest Global Index’ report of last month. Note that in this report, Ookla ranks countries based on download speed.
As per this report in January 2024, India ranked 18th. That means India has now become one of the top 20 countries in the world in terms of internet speed. And the way India is progressing in the list, it will soon make its place in the list of top 10 countries. Notably, Iceland is currently in tenth place, with an average download speed of 126.74 Mbps. And the average download speed in India in January 2024 was 99.03 Mbps.
Currently, Reliance Jio and Airtel are able to provide very fast download speed to 5G subscribers. No need to spend extra money for this. That is, customers are getting 5G services with 4G plans, so the 5G data cost is also increasing.
Incidentally, before the launch of 5G, in September 2022, India’s mobile download speed was 13.87 Mbps. At that time India was ranked 188th in Okla’s Speedtest Global Index. But India quickly made its way into the top 20 after the advent of 5G.
