    Vodafone India has promised to roll out 4G services in Delhi by December. The service will be expanded to cover the NCR region viz. Noida, Ghaziabad and Gurgaon over the course of time. The company said that it's invested to the tune of Rs. 350 crores to upgrade their existing infrastructure to support the high speed voice and data network.

    Apoorva Malhotra, the head of business for the Delhi NCR region informed the media that the service will be launched in the superior 1800 MHz frequency band. The key areas of Delhi and NCR region will be the first ones to get the 4G coverage and other areas will be addressed in a phased manner. Malhotra did not provide a timeline for the complete coverage across Delhi.

    The Delhi NCR region is indeed an important geography for Vodafone. The area accounts for about 30% of company's revenue from Data. The company said that the usage in the region is growing by almost 50% year on year for Vodafone.

    Just few days ago, Vodafone had declared that it will roll out <a href="https://www.crazyengineers.com/threads/vodafone-4g-in-mumbai-by-december-2015.84440">Vodafone 4G In Mumbai By December 2015</a> by the same time frame. The company has already began testing its network in both the regions and is likely to announce the 4G service plans.

    As of now, Airtel offers the maximum 4G coverage all over India, including Delhi. Other prominent network operators in India too have vowed to launch their 4G networks in various parts of India by 2016 including the heavyweight Reliance Jio; which is expected to start its pan-India rollout by December this year.

    No doubt the 4G markets in India are going to witness stiff competition from leading telecom services providers. It's likely that this competition will lead to price wars, benefiting the end users.

    While all the major operators prepare to launch 4G services, their struggle has become more challenging with TRAI asking them to <a href="https://www.crazyengineers.com/threads/what-do-you-think-about-trai-decision-to-compensate-users-for-call-drops.84692">What do you think about TRAI decision to compensate users for call drops?</a> with Rs. 1 for each call drop.
