RJio aims to corner half the telecom market by 2021
Posted on 4th March 2017 |

Reliance Jio (RJio) has set a target of capturing half the telecom sector’s projected revenues of Rs 3 lakh crore by FY21. The company, which will start charging customers from April 1, indicated this at an analyst meet on Thursday. The company also plans to hit an operating profit margin of 50 per cent on the back of an efficient network, which it claims operates at the lowest operating cost per gigabyte. If RJio manages to reach the projected numbers, it will be unprecedented given no new entrant at the global level has achieved more than 10 per cent market share after launching their services. In fact, most analysts had pegged a revenue market share of 20 per cent for the company by 2020. RJio is expected to break-even at the operating profit level by the end of FY18 and achieve revenues of $3 billion (or Rs 20,000 crore), according to analysts at Morgan Stanley. |
