Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) has released telecom subscription data for the month of December 2020 which shows that Airtel again beats its rivals Jio and Vi. The Govt owned PSU BSNL is nowhere in the race and continuously losing customers.

The most interesting part of the report is active mobile customers v/s total customers. See the numbers and notice that half of BSNL customers are not active but almost all numbers of Airtel are active.
