Bharti Airtel launches 4G services in Bengaluru


Bharti Airtel has today launched its 4G services in India's IT hub - Bengaluru. Following the recent inaugural launch of Airtel 4G services in Kolkata, customers in Bengaluru have now become the second in India to have access to 4G LTE technology that is touted to deliver the most advanced wireless broadband experience across the globe.
Airtel has also introduced 'Smartbytes' for 4G, thereby allowing customers to buy these add on packs and continue enjoying the 4G experience even after exhausting their monthly data limits.
Airtel's 4G network in Bengaluru was launched by Mr D.V. Sadananda Gowda, Honourable Chief Minister of the state of Karnataka.
"As seen the world over, the total data usage is exploding and is doubling each year to grow to nearly 3.6 hexabytes by 2014. With the launch of 4G, India will move from being a follower in technology to matching the world in this domain,” said Sanjay Kapoor, CEO – India & South Asia, Bharti Airtel.
As part of an introductory offer by Airtel, customers subscribing to 4G services will be given a cashback for the CPE/dongle - thus bringing device cost to customers zero and paving way for mass adoption of 4G services. Airtel 4G is now also available in an all new 30GB pack priced at Rs 2999.
After launching its 4G LTE services in Kolkata and Bengaluru, Airtel is currently working towards rolling it out in remaining licence circles.
