Reliance Jio, Airtel, Vodafone Idea and BSNL are the four major telecom companies of the country. However, in terms of user base, Reliance Jio outweighs all others. Jio currently has the highest number of users and their number is continuously increasing. The new report released by TRAI has revealed that 41.78 lakh new users of Jio have been added in the month of January.
In the last few months, the number of people using wireless services in India has also increased rapidly.

Airtel-VI failed in front of Jio
The month of January was the best for Jio. This month the company added 41.78 lakh users. Airtel added millions of customers but this number was much less as compared to Jio. Airtel added 7.52 lakh new users in January 2024. According to TRAI report, at present the number of Airtel users has reached 38.24 crore.
Vi is the third largest telecom company in the country. While the month of January was great for Jio and Airtel, the new year was also full of losses for Vi. In the new year, the company not only added new customers but also several lakhs of customers left the company. A total of 15.2 lakh users left Vi’s service in January 2024. Now Vi has a total of 22.15 crore users.
