Scindia says certain circles like Jharkhand, Kolkata need to raise Arpus from below ₹60
A nationwide rollout of its 4G services has come as a shot in the arm for Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd (BSNL).
The state-run telecom operator saw its average revenue per user (Arpu) rise 12% to ₹91 in July-September from ₹81 in the preceding quarter, communications minister Jyotiraditya Scindia said on Thursday.
Arpu is a measure of a telecom company’s earning per customer on an average over a specific period, such as a month. The nationwide 4G service rollout has led to higher revenues and a steady uptick in subscriber additions for BSNL.

When little details capture reality
There is a quiet gravitas to the works on display across the two floors of Art Alive Gallery in Delhi. Each watercolour, be it landscape, portrait or self-study, features an interplay of light, shadow and colour. Artist Shibu Natesan, 59, deftly works with these elements to imbue every painting with a unique atmosphere. The painter's gaze seems to be akin to that of a photographer's. The paintings are nearly photorealistic, conveying the feel of the environment, the personality of the subject and the essence of the landscape to the viewer.
