Major telecom operators in India — Jio, Airtel and Vodafone Idea — have been making varied tariff changes for the past few years.
Jio welcomed aggressive pricing to capture market share but has taken price increases continuously since 2021, looking to be profitable.
Airtel too has increased tariffs to counter costs going up, in emphasis of sustainable pricing.
