Vi Launches GIGAnet Integrated Service, Calls it the Strongest 4G Network in India

Speaking on the rollout of GIGAnet, Vishant Vora, chief technology officer of Vodafone-Idea, said in a statement, “The role of telecom networks is no longer restricted to calling or internet surfing, rather it has become the ‘oxygen’ to survive and thrive. GIGAnet is Vi’s effort to move beyond connectivity to be the platform for a digital society. It offers faster downloads and uploads, low latency and real-time connectivity. It delivers strong, consistent and uninterrupted performance and is the answer to the hyper connectivity needs of today’s individual smartphone users as well as large corporates, SMEs and government bodies.”

The network integration operation can seemingly help Vi address concerns regarding its overall network quality, which is one of the reasons why the operator has seen a consistent landslide in its market share and user count. It now faces steep losses in light of the adjusted gross revenues (AGR) ruling passed by the Supreme Court of India, and will now hope that an upgrade to its network may help attract major foreign investors and revive its fortunes in a cut-throat telecom market in India.
