Jio Marks Decade of Affordable Connectivity and Digital Transformation
Reliance Jio says it has spent ten years helping more people in India use the internet.
When Jio started in 2016, mobile data was much more expensive.
The company says the price of data has dropped sharply since then.
People on Jio’s network now use much more data each month.
Jio serves more than 524 million customers.
It also provides services such as broadband, cloud technology, 5G and artificial intelligence.
Jio says its technology is used by businesses and other organizations.
The company wants India to create and export more technology in the future.
Reliance Jio says affordable connectivity and innovation have reshaped India’s digital landscape since its 2016 market entry.
Mobile data prices reportedly fell from about ₹228 per GB to ₹7.9, while average Jio usage reached 42.3 GB per month.
Jio now serves more than 524 million customers, and its digital applications have over 360 million monthly active users.
The company has expanded into 5G, home broadband, enterprise connectivity, cloud services, devices and artificial intelligence.
Jio says its next decade will focus on helping India become a technology developer and exporter, not only a major consumer.
