    Finally, our national telecom backbone – Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) has decided to commercially launch its Ultra Fast 4G LTE Services in 14 telecom circles. As we reported earlier, BSNL soft launched its 4G LTE services in Chandigarh for its employees.
    As per the latest information, BSNL management committee has given approval for the commercial rollout of 4G LTE services in 2500 MHz band. BSNL will float EoI (Expression of Interest ) around mid of this month, for rolling out 4G services on revenue sharing basis.

    BSNL surrendered BWA spectrum in six telecom circles (Gujarat, Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and Kolkata) and currently the PSU holds 20 MHz BWA spectrum in 2,500 MHz band for rolling out 4G services in 14 telecom circles.

    BSNL Chairman and Managing Director Anupam Shrivastava said – “BSNL management committee has approved rollout of 4G services. We are in process of issuing expression of interest for rolling out 4G services on revenue sharing basis. It should be issued around mid of this month. We will provide only bandwidth to technology service provider who will manage and operate 4G services.”

    BSNL will be launching Ultra Fast 4G Services in the
    following telecom circles:-     Kerala, Rajasthan, Himachal Pradesh, Punjab,
    Jammu & Kashmir, Haryana, UP (E), UP (W), Bihar, Orissa, Madhya
    Pradesh, Assam, North East and Orissa.

    BSNL managed to achieve net positive in Mobile Number Portability in 2015-16. The company registered the highest growth rate in providing new mobile connections in February 2016, beating all private operators.

    “The 4G services will further add to our subscriber growth. We are known for providing affordable service rates and we will always strive for meeting this expectation of people. We are also working to roll out 40,000 WiFi Hotspots across the country in two-three years which will compliment its 4G services,” Shrivastava added.
    With the launch of 4G LTE services, BSNL will join the
    league of 4G operators like Bharti Airtel, Vodafone and also Aircel and
    Reliance Jio who are planning to launch 4G services very soon. BSNL also has the second largest mobile towers in the country hence we may expect wider coverage     than other private operators.
