ARPU increases 1.4% to Rs 206.2 versus Rs 203.3.
The company said in a release that the increase in ARPU during the quarter under review was driven by "continued impact of the tariff hike and better subscriber mix partly impacted by lower number of days in the quarter".
Reliance Jio, which is the country's telecom operator, increased its subscriber base 1.3% to 48.8 crore as compared to 48.2 crore as of Dec. 31, 2024.
The net subscriber addition was 6.1 million during the quarter, Reliance Industries said. "New additions were driven by the rebound of mobility additions post tariff hike and the steady ramp-up of connected home," it said.
Reliance Jio Infocomm Chairman Akash Ambani lauded Jio's "consistent outperformance" in customer engagement. "Jio is proud to have served millions of users at world's largest congregation of people, the Mahakumbh mela where its network scalability and flexibility was well demonstrated. Jio is working on enabling large scale AI infrastructure and services that will add an intelligence layer to all Jio services," the press release quoted him as saying.
