Telcos likely to see modest revenue growth in June Qtr

Analysts expect a modest 2.5-3% sequential increase in revenue growth for the telecom sector in the June quarter. Despite higher data usage during the IPL cricket tournament and increased demand for international roaming packs during the summer holiday season, revenue growth is expected to be limited. This is due to many mobile users still paying lower 4G rates even after opting for 5G packs, and most subscribers having large amounts of unused data, reducing the need for costlier mobile broadband plans.
