Vi’s 5G expansion is part of its ₹55,000 crore capital expenditure plan spanning three years. Cities like Bengaluru and Mysuru are next in line for 5G activation, with rollouts already underway in key markets across the 17 priority circles. In Mumbai, 70% of eligible users are already experiencing Vi’s 5G services, contributing to 20% of the city’s total data traffic.

Vi’s ambitious 5G deployment is designed to build a high-capacity, future-ready network capable of meeting the growing demands of digital India. By expanding its 5G infrastructure, Vi aims to deliver seamless, high-speed connectivity, empowering both consumers and enterprises through advanced technologies, smart applications, and industry-grade solutions.
