Delhi. Telecom Service Providers (TSPs) have started providing 5G services in the country from 01.10.2022 onwards.

As on 31st Jan, 2023, 5G services have been started in 238 cities distributed across all license service areas.

The Government has established a road map to make 5G services available in different parts of the country through rollout obligations.

As per the Notice Inviting Application (NIA) dated 15-06-2022 for auction of spectrum and the license conditions, the rollout obligations are required to be met over a period of five years, in a phased manner, from the date of allocation of spectrum.

Further expansion of mobile networks beyond the mandatory rollout obligations depends on the techno-commercial consideration of the Telecom Service Providers (TSPs).

This information was given by the Minister of State for Communications Devusinh Chauhan in a written reply to a question in Lok Sabha today.
