New Delhi, 14’h May 2025-
Vodafone Idea (Vi) is launching its high—speed 5G services in Delhi NCR from May 15, marking a major milestone in its nationwide 5G rollout. The capital region joins Vi’s growing 5G footprint as part of the initial phase of the roll out, which has already seen launches in Mumbai, Chandigarh and Patna. The telco is all set to roll out 5G in all 17 priority circles, where it has acquired 5G spectrum, by August this year.
Vi’s introductory 5G offer includes unlimited data for users with 5G—enabled devices on plans starting from 7299. Subscribers can now experience Vi 5G for activities such as streaming, gaming, video conferencing, faster downloads, and real—time cloud access.
For Delhi NCR, Vi has partnered with Ericsson to build its next gen 5G infrastructure, which offers enhanced energy efficiency and lighter hardware. Vi has also deployed Al—powered Self—Organising Network (SON) technology to further optimise network performance and uses a 5G Non—StandAIone (NSA) architecture, ensuring smooth transitions between 4G and 5G for users’ seamless experience.
Vi’s 5G rollout in 17 circles is a part of its 755,000 crore capex planned over three years. Cities like Bengaluru and Mysuru are next on the map, with rollouts underway across other key markets in the remaining circles. In Mumbai, 70% of eligible users are already experiencing Vi’s 5G services and about 20% of its data traffic is already being carried on the 5G network.
Vi is building a future—ready, high—capacity network designed to deliver seamless, fast connectivity to meet the evolving demands of digital India. By expanding its 5G infrastructure and unlocking next—generation connectivity experiences for millions, Vi is set to further enable digital India —empowering both consumers and enterprises through advanced mobile technologies, smart applications, and industry—grade solutions
