India's broadband numbers: The devil is in the details
India is both a leader and a laggard in internet access. It ranks second in the world, after China, in the number of people connected to the internet and first among those unconnected. Neither ranking tells the complete story, but both contradict the exaggerated claims of officials and cynics. I examine more detailed data for successes, failures, and the remaining challenges. Let us start with the successes. India's telecommunications network and broadband infrastructure have grown dramatically in the thirty years since the government dismantled its monopoly and opened the market to private players. The network's reach and usage have improved markedly; telephony and broadband internet subscriptions have skyrocketed. According to the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India ( TRAI ), India has 1.2 billion telephone subscribers and over 944 million broadband subscribers today. The government says 4G, a wireless broadband technology, covers over 99% of India, while 5G is reportedly available in 773 districts out of 776. This implies near-universal telephone access and over 65% broadband penetration. According to GSMA Intelligence , 92.3% of mobile connections in India are run on 'broadband' 3G, 4G, or 5G mobile networks. The telecom minister says India would have a billion internet users by the end of the fiscal year. The vast network upgrade has been a boon for India's digital public infrastructure (DPI), transforming the delivery of several key citizen-centric services. Examples include seamless identity verification, Direct Benefit Transfer to recipient accounts, Universal Payment Interface ( UPI ), and toll payments using FASTag, all of which have achieved countrywide success. The DPI's scale, encompassing the entire population, is a singular achievement. India is a key market for global internet giants such as Google, Facebook, and Amazon. According to Datareportal, a portal specialising in internet usage data, India had 751.5 million social media users in early 2025. With 200-500 million subscribers for social media, messaging, video streaming, and e-commerce applications, Indians' uptake of online services is remarkable. Yet, there are worrying gaps in access, which are often poorly captured in aggregate countrywide data for a country with over 1.4 billion people like India. According to TRAI data, rural areas have about 20% fewer subscribers than urban areas, even though the former has more than 25% more residents. Similarly, economically disadvantaged states like Bihar, Jharkhand, Assam, Jammu and Kashmir, the Northeast, and Himachal Pradesh have significantly lower internet access compared to more prosperous regions like Maharashtra and Gujarat. The metropolitan areas are far better off than the rest of the country. Women face significant disadvantages in accessing the internet. According to a recent report by GSMA , the global body of the cellular industry, barely 37% of India's women access the internet. While two-thirds of men have used the internet, only half of the women in India have. A recent survey estimated that 34.5 per cent of India's social media user identities were female, while 65.5 per cent were male. Data for India reports that barely 27% own a handset for their exclusive use. An estimated 21% of women have never used a phone or the internet. Several other factors constrain broadband access, too. A worrying sign is the widespread use of 2G, a technology best suited for voice calls with minimal support for internet access. India has an estimated 200 million 2G users. All telecom operators – except Reliance Jio , which has not deployed 2G - continue to run their 2G networks. Roughly 50 million 2G handsets are sold annually. The TRAI does not separately report 2G subscribers. However, its report indicates that 2G users account for 0.09 % of the data consumed. Thus, 2G mobile subscribers—roughly 20 % of the total—do not access the internet or do so rarely. The government has initiated two important projects to address the gaps in access. The BharatNet project seeks to extend broadband optical fibre to all villages, and the PM-WANI (Prime Minister Wi-Fi Access Network Interface) aims to assist local entrepreneurs in offering Wi-Fi internet access. BharatNet was envisaged to deliver broadband to 2.4 lakh gram panchayats by 2013. It missed that and several later deadlines. The target was revised later to connect all the 6.5 lakh villages by August 2023. A recent report says BharatNet has connected only 30% of villages and may miss its revised 2025 deadline. PM-WANI envisaged 10 million public Wi-Fi hotspots by 2022, but as of 2025, only 280,000 hotspots have been deployed. Half are in urban areas, and 45% are in Delhi. The repeatedly missed targets in BharatNet and PM-WANI suggest a significant deficit in rural broadband connectivity. Mobile data Usage in India demands a nuanced look. At 27 GB per connection, it is amongst the highest in the world. On the one hand, this implies the wide use of diverse digital services. On the other hand, it denotes the shortage of alternative internet access, such as fixed lines (cable and optical fibre) and satellite services. With mobiles contributing over 96% of connections, India lacks network diversity. In mature markets, fixed-line data usage far exceeds wireless. (A recent report said that a US household consumes 550-700 GB monthly.) Exclusive reliance on cellular mobile services is a risk. However, network access is critical but not sufficient. Experts recognise that internet access is not just a 'supply-side' issue. The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) – and recently the TRAI too- have emphasised 'Universal and Meaningful Connectivity' (UMC). UMC requires network availability, adequate quality and security, affordable services and devices, and skills. According to the ITU, 'each dimension contributes to a meaningful digital experience, and strength in one cannot compensate for weakness in another'. Therefore, without context, aggregated data or crude calculations offer a limited understanding of the progress and the remaining challenges. Besides network reach and capacity, we need more accurate local information, affordability of services and smartphones, availability of relevant content, and usage data based on gender, income, etc. Data can also be misleading if the underlying assumptions are unclear. For instance, the TRAI data treats the number of active subscriptions as the number of subscribers. It ignores the use of multiple SIMs, as revealed by its calculations of teledensity -the number of connections as a percentage of the population. (Teledensity of Delhi is 278% and in Urban areas, 124%!). Similarly, TRAI's data of 944 million broadband users in India refers to active accounts, not unique users. A person with a 4G SIM and landline subscription counts as two subscribers. The TRAI data, therefore, significantly overestimates the number of phone and internet subscribers in India. Exaggerated claims of access and usage can be counterproductive. They can overstate readiness for digital services or discourage regulatory attention to the remaining unmet objectives. Indeed, prematurely replacing conventional services with digital alternatives, without considering those with limited or no access, might further harm the vulnerable. There are several reports to this effect. Workers struggle to digitally record attendance in the government's flagship employment programme, MNREGA. Seven out of ten people find it difficult to book railway tickets online. During the COVID pandemic, it was revealed that barely 25% of students could access lessons online. We ignore these challenges at our peril. India's extensive broadband network and the impressive DPI are admittedly massive growth drivers. However, their impact will be suboptimal if we don't identify and fill the gaps. The devil is in the details!

European Online Grocery Market Dublin, May 19, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Europe Online Grocery Market Size and Share Analysis - Growth Trends and Forecast Report 2025-2033" report has been added to Europe Online Grocery Market is expected to reach US$ 797.34 billion in 2033 from US$ 178.51 billion in 2024, with a CAGR of 18.09% from 2025 to 2033 A number of factors are driving the expansion of the online grocery business in Europe. A major factor is the growing demand from customers for time-saving and convenient solutions, as more buyers choose the convenience of home delivery. Expanded access to online grocery platforms is made possible by increased internet and smartphone usage as well as better digital payment methods. In 2.02 trillion people (86% of the population) in Europe had a mobile service subscription, and by 2025, that number is expected to increase to 480 million, according to GSMA Intelligence. Furthermore, the purchasing experience is further improved by effective logistics and quick delivery choices. The demand is also being driven by shifting consumer tastes toward specialized, organic, and healthier items. Innovations like contactless purchasing and tailored recommendations, along with the rising popularity of subscription services, are driving industry expansion throughout Drivers for the Europe Online Grocery Market Different Delivery ModelsOnline grocery shopping involves more than just purchasing groceries from a website; it also includes flexible delivery options. Innovative strategies like as click-and-collect orders, which consumers place online and can pick up from a nearby store or a location of their choosing, are used in place of the conventional home delivery method. The appeal of this strategy is the delivery cost savings and convenience it provides for people who choose to pick up their food at a convenient time. Second, subscription services are well-liked, particularly for meal packages, snacks, and fresh goods. These businesses frequently send large quantities of fresh supplies or meals that have already been made once a week. Customers who want easy lives and good diets are the ones who require these services the most. The advent of lightning-fast delivery services has recently changed the Supply Chain Innovations and LogisticsThe development of supply chain and logistics technologies has been crucial to the expansion of the online grocery business in Europe. Grocery deliveries used to take longer, and people avoided buying perishable items online. Nonetheless, the efficiency of supermarket deliveries has significantly increased due to developments in last-mile delivery, automation, and real-time tracking. The dark stores are another important factor in delivering faster. Fulfillment facilities that exclusively handle online orders are known as "dark stores." To enable quicker order pickup and packaging, they are typically found in cities. In addition, supermarket delivery services pioneered the hyper-localized, on-demand delivery concept, promising delivery in a matter of minutes. Because of this speed, consumers now want their groceries to be delivered quickly, which gives businesses that invest in logistics optimization a competitive Demand for Sustainability and HealthThe demand for local, sustainable, and organic produce has increased as European customers grow more environmentally conscious and health conscious, which has an impact on the online grocery business. Numerous studies indicate that consumers, particularly those in Northern and Western Europe, are most concerned about sustainability. In response, internet merchants are expanding their product lines to include more organic, fair-trade, and plant-based options. Additionally, since they encourage green packaging and the decrease of food waste, more shops have committed to reducing their environmental impact. Customers are also favoring businesses who are eager to source ethically and offer transparency throughout their supply chain, and they frequently demand brands that align with their beliefs when making in the Europe Online Grocery Market High operational costsOne major issue facing the European online grocery business is high operating costs. Transportation, inventory control, and warehousing costs can affect profitability, particularly for perishable commodities that need to be handled carefully and delivered on time. Operational costs are further increased by maintaining dependable and effective logistical networks, making technological investments, and providing competitive pricing. Large-scale fulfillment facilities and the construction of cutting-edge delivery infrastructure in both urban and rural areas are also necessary, which puts additional financial strain on companies and hinders their long-term viability and market CompetitionThe online grocery business in Europe is highly competitive, with several well-known companies like Tesco, Carrefour, and Lidl as well as up-and-coming startups fighting for consumers' attention. Profit margins are strained by price wars, regular promotions, and ongoing advancements in customer satisfaction and delivery speed.

Indian telcos' record high spectrum cost burdens may impact national digital goals: GSMA
NEW DELHI: Indian telecom carriers are sagged by one of the highest spectrum cost burdens globally, which may impede their ability to invest in the nation's digital connectivity initiatives and related programmes, the GSMA and its research unit GSMA Intelligence said. The high reserve prices have traditionally hindered spectrum sales in India, leading to unsold spectrum and contributing to spectrum scarcity. In other instances, GSMA said that the high reserve prices contributed to higher final prices paid by the telcos. 'However, of late, the approach has been revised, and reserve prices have been reduced to avoid further failures. Simultaneously, already accumulated spectrum cost meant operators were able to pay much less per unit of additional spectrum,' the GSMA said in a report released ahead of the World Telecommunication and Information Society Day 2025. In India's first 5G spectrum sale in 2022, the Central government put 72,098MHz of spectrum under the hammer – and sold 51,236MHz (71% of the total) – netting ₹1.50 lakh crore. Subsequently, about 533.6MHz of unsold spectrum across multiple bands, such as 800MHz, 900MHz, 1800MHz, 2100MHz, 2300MHz, 2500MHz, 3300MHz, and 26GHz bands, was put to auction in 2024 to meet the spectrum requirements of telcos and to ensure the continuity of the services. This round, however, saw a muted participation, with only 141.4MHz – or 26.5% of the total – being sold. GSMA said the lower unit prices in recent spectrum auctions were not 'sufficient to reverse the trend in spectrum coast build-up'. 'The acquisition of new bands to support 5G and improved 4G networks has meant that the spectrum cost burden gradually increased between 2015 and 2023. This currently stands at 26% of operator recurring revenues and is among the highest in the world,' the telco association said in its findings. GSMA suggested that the rationalised spectrum pricing is one of the catalysts for the recently accelerated 5G rollout and improved network quality in India. 'However, the burden of spectrum cost will continue to influence India's progress towards its digital goals for years to come,' it said. India's top telecom incumbents, Reliance Jio and Bharti Airtel , have completed nationwide 5G deployments and are focusing on driving deeper coverage of their mobile networks. Vodafone Idea (Vi), too, said recently its commercial 5G services will become available in its priority 17 circles by August 2025. Meanwhile, state-controlled Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited ( BSNL ) is currently deploying commercial 4G services, and will switch on 5G gradually. The association said the expansive spectrum acquisition for the latest generation wireless networks has further driven up the aggregate cost burden for the telecom industry. Globally, the cumulative spectrum costs now account for 7% of operator revenues, a 63% increase over the past 10 years, GSMA found. This has exacerbated the industry's financial woes as the average revenue generated per MHz of spectrum has declined by 60% over the same period. 'Although costs per MHz have fallen by up to 75% in some bands since 2014, operators have increased spectrum holdings by 80% over the same period to cope with bandwidth demand, driving up the overall cost,' it said. As per GSMA's analysis of spectrum cost on consumer outcomes in the 4G and 5G era, a 10-percentage point (pp) higher spectrum cost-to-revenue ratio leads to coverage that is lower by about 4-pp, and a 10-pp higher spectrum cost means a reduction of download speeds by 6%, and a reduction in upload speeds by 4%. 'Analysis also confirms the vital role of making sufficient spectrum available to enable network rollout: 10% more spectrum leads to 1-pp greater coverage based on 4G networks, and 2-pp greater coverage based on 5G networks. 10% more spectrum leads to 4% higher network download speeds and 2% higher upload speeds. Latencies decline by 1% for every 10% increase in spectrum,' the GSMA said. 'Governments and regulators must prioritise spectrum pricing that reflects market realities and fosters long-term digital growth. By ensuring spectrum is affordable, they can unlock faster network expansion, better service quality, and greater digital inclusion for all of their citizens,' said Vivek Badrinath, director-general of the GSMA. With nearly 1,000 spectrum licences set to expire worldwide by 2030, upcoming renewals present a critical opportunity to reset pricing policies to drive investment in the next generation of mobile networks, GSMA said.

Only American leadership will prevent the disaster of Chinese 6G dominance
For decades, America led the world in technological innovation. But that all changed with the rise of 5G, a development that found the US lagging and reactive. Now, advances in 6G seem set to produce yet another technological transformation – one the US must meet with proactive leadership, not a defensive stance. The stakes are enormous. Whoever masters 6G first will enjoy not just a formidable economic edge, but also a decisive national security advantage. The 5G era exposed serious vulnerabilities in American technology. Though American tech firms excelled in software, critical hardware, and global standard-setting, there were still major leadership gaps. Foreign competitors (most notably China's Huawei) surged ahead of America, seizing considerable market share and strategic influence over international telecommunications networks. By the time the US recognised the scope of the challenge, it was playing catch-up. We cannot afford a similar failure for 6G. 6G isn't just an incremental improvement over 5G. While 5G offers faster speeds and expanded connectivity, 6G promises breakthroughs like seamless integration of augmented reality, ubiquitous Internet of Things (IoT) networks, holographic communications, and AI-driven applications far beyond anything we could imagine now. In short, 6G promises the kind of technological leap that, if harnessed effectively, will prove fundamental to entire industries – from smart cities to autonomous vehicles, telemedicine, and more. Global 5G deployments are projected to contribute $6.5 trillion to the world economy by 2025 and nearly $11 trillion by 2030, according to GSMA Intelligence. But predictions for 6G leave these in the dust. Although 5G is likewise forecast to generate multi-trillion-dollar returns, 6G could exceed even those projections. For the US to miss out on the benefits of 6G – both economic and strategic – would be to repeat the same mistakes we made with 5G technology. That's not an option. We must seize leadership in 6G early to ensure we reap the rewards. Fortunately, other technological developments provide hope of renewed American tech ambition. One example is the emerging 'Stargate' initiative, a forward-thinking AI framework that will bridge academic research, defence needs, and private-sector innovation. This initiative demonstrates the kind of bold vision we need to bring to 6G development. To enact this vision, the US will have to adopt flexible, vendor-neutral solutions – something we've already seen in the push toward open, interoperable architectures (which Trump mentioned by name in a recent statement with the prime minister of Japan). America does not need to go it alone. Currently, some of the greatest innovations in 5G and potential 6G infrastructure technology come from trusted allies. We should harness their abilities and place companies like Finland's Nokia, Sweden's Ericsson, and South Korea's Samsung (none of which are Chinese state-controlled entities) at the forefront of 6G research and deployment. These companies' existing track records position them well to collaborate with the US in shaping 6G standards, architecture, and rollout. And by partnering with them, we can reduce the risks posed by relying solely on entities with potential ties to foreign enemies. By collaborating, we can ensure that 6G standards remain open, transparent, and driven by democratic values – thereby deterring authoritarian regimes from imposing their own versions of network control and cementing our collective leadership in the digital sphere. All this will demand significant investment. This is where America's capital markets and global allies must align. Already, the Trump administration has signalled a renewed intent to resurrect the fight for 6G. But this effort shouldn't be limited to a single administration or political party. Rather, 6G efforts should be part of a bipartisan national agenda funded by both public and private sources. By engaging in public-private partnerships, we'll be able to pool resources from the United States, Europe, and Asia, ensuring a collective push that can surpass the efforts of Chinese state-backed entities. Time is short. China is already developing 6G prototypes and, if given the chance, will likely offer subsidised deals to developing nations (a move straight from its 5G playbook). From a national security perspective, networks form the nerve centres of modern societies. If Washington fails to safeguard and lead next-generation infrastructure, it will find itself beholden to foreign interests for critical communications technology. That risk cannot be overstated. In the information age, national sovereignty hinges in large part on network control. Because of this, the United States must take the initiative by forming partnerships with non-CCP-linked tech leaders, by pursuing AI efforts like Stargate, and by mobilising political will and capital. Now is the time to seize a competitive advantage over the CCP and forge a future defined by open markets, democratic values, and a level playing field – one where all will benefit from cutting-edge connectivity. Winning the 6G race won't just secure America's economic prosperity and national security; it'll reaffirm the vitality of free nations working in concert. America should learn its lesson from 5G and double down on its commitment to once again leading the world in technological innovation.
