Sunil Sood, MD & CEO, Vodafone India said, “We are delighted to launch our ultrafast 4G services in India that will give customers the power to experience the most advanced wireless broadband experience available across the globe today."
"As a steadfast partner of Digital India, we remain focused on deploying multiple technologies – be it 2G, 3G and now 4G – for optimum use as each technology has its own vital role to play in servicing the myriad connectivity needs of consumers across the country,” he added.
Existing subscribers in Kochi can avail of a free upgrade to 4G services along with a new 'Superfast 4G SIM'. Vodafone will increase the intensity of its 4G rollout covering important metros – Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore and Kolkata in the first phase.
Vodafone had first announced a December rollout time-frame in August, following Airtel's launch of its 4G services the same month. Over the past four months, Vodafone India has been testing its upcoming 4G services and partnering with global technology infrastructure service providers for the network rollout.
