Management Outlook

RCIL views the Indian telecom industry to be segregated into wireless, wireline and enterprise services. As of December 2022, total broadband subscriptions stood at 832.2 million, and the total subscriber base stood at 1,170.38 million. It expects that by 2025, India will need around 22 million skilled workers in 5G-related technologies such as Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), robotics and cloud computing. It also expects that 5G will be used in INDIA to enable DIGITAL India, SMART Cities & SMART Village missions for India.  RCIL already has a massive reach across India, covering all the important and major cities, including small towns. It considers itself to be the only consistently profitable and dividend-paying company in the telecom space under the Govt of India. Therefore, with the spread and reach, the company is in a position to serve roughly 70% of the country’s population. This gives the company ample opportunity to scale up its services over time to meet the rising demand for telecommunication services in India in the coming years.
