The Indian telecom sector has been going through one of its most exciting phases at the moment. On one hand, we are witnessing an aggressive countrywide 5G rollout with Airtel and Jio leading the way, and on the other hand, smartphone manufacturers are lining up compatible devices in every price segment to ensure no one is left out. Telecom trends expected in 2023 are going to be equally interesting. While Airtel and Jio with their 5G plans will make headlines, it will also be the year when BSNL steps into the 4G network and Vi takes the final call on when it wants to join the 5G drive. Here we are discussing every such telecom trends expected in 2023 - Jio and Airtel 5G Plans, BSNL 4G and More. So, without further delay, let’s begin. Also Read: Divided By Jio And Airtel Plans, United By 5G Network Jio and Airtel 5G Plans Jio and Airtel have started rolling out 5G network connectivity across India starting with Tier 1 cities such as Mumbai, Delhi, Hyderabad, Bengaluru, and Chennai among others. The telecom companies are planning on moving to Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities soon. However, the networks are yet to announce the 5G plans for any particular region. In 2023, it is anticipated that both service providers will finally announce their 5G data plans with pack details. Market speculations suggest that plans for the 5G network will be similar to the plans of current 4G networks. As both brands are looking forward to increasing their 5G customer base in the coming days, increasing the tariff for data plans so early in the rollout process can be disadvantageous.

It is widely expected that the telecom will finally announce the launch of its 5G networks soon in 2023. Vodafone Idea MD and CEO Ravinder Takkar, while speaking to the media about this said, “Our network is very much 5G-ready. When the 5G auction takes place, we will be able to launch 5G. However, there is a need to develop India’s 5G use cases. India is unique and some global use cases might not be relevant.” BSNL 4G Rollout According to some recent media reports, BSNL is all set to roll out the 4G network to its customers as early as January 2023. The company received 4G trails permission some time back and speculations around its eventual availability have been making news since then. Infrastructure has already been upgraded in the metro cities for a possible rollout. While we are waiting for BSNL 4G, the Cabinet Minister of Communication Ashwini Vaishnav also recently confirmed that BSNL will also foray into 5G networks by August 2023. Whether both 4G and 5G deployments happen simultaneously or in segments is something yet to be confirmed. Increase in 5G Data Consumption If it wasn’t obvious, the telecom sector in 2023 will be all about the 5G network. One of the biggest trends that the industry is hoping to cash on is the increase in 5G data consumption across the country. With customers getting upgraded speed and latency, most industry experts have speculated more data per second compared to 4G. This will also push telecoms to be prepared to offer more data benefits with 5G plans to meet the increase in demand. Also Read: After Airtel and VI, Reliance Jio hikes prepaid tariffs by 20 percent
