RJio Set To Usher In Digital Life In 2017

- Nandita Singh

The vision of end-to-end ‘always on’ 4G ecosystem has captured the attention of masses. Subscriber enrollment numbers at RJio tell a story. On an average, the company is adding 6 lakh subscribers per day.

Mukesh Ambani led Reliance Jio Infocomm (RJio) in less than three months of launch crossed 50-million user markin November 2016. With a stated goal of 100 million by March 2017, the company is already halfway the mark.

Jio had rolled out eKYC across 2 lakh outlets in India, activating SIMs in under 5 minutes with more than 95% of its activations executed paperless via eKYC. Now, the company is in the process of doubling the network to 4 lakh digitally enabled outlets by March 2017. More recently, RJio introduced home delivery of SIMs to enterprise and high-end customers with an under-5 minute activation through eKYC. This home delivery service is being progressively launched across India through MyJio application and will be available in top 100 cities before we enter the Year 2017, which may well be the ‘Year of RJio’.
