TRAI March 2026 Data Explained | Real Subscriber Growth After Removing M2M

Описание: TRAI has released its Telecom Subscription Data for March 2026, and as always, the headline numbers don’t tell the full story.

In this video, I break down the data beyond surface-level subscriber additions—focusing on:

The distortion caused by M2M connections
Real subscriber growth (net of M2M)
FWA (5G wireless fiber) and UBR trends
Circle-wise focus areas for operators
What the VLR data actually signals about active users

If you only look at raw subscriber additions, you may completely misread the competitive landscape.
