According to TRAI’s telecom subscription figures for December 2025, Jio has reinforced its dominant position in India’s home broadband market, adding nearly double the number of subscribers compared to its closest rival within a single month.

Fueled by the swift nationwide rollout of AirFiber and fixed wireless access (FWA) services, Jio registered more than 8.7 lakh new broadband customers across both FWA and wired FTTH segments. In contrast, Airtel added roughly 4.9 lakh subscribers during the same period.

The lead is even more striking in the fixed wireless category. Over the past six months, Jio has secured an impressive 79% market share in this segment, onboarding over four times as many users as its nearest competitor.

At the same time, Jio continues to hold its position as India’s largest wired broadband provider, serving 13.8 million subscribers and consistently recording stronger monthly net additions than its peers. Taken together, these figures underscore Jio’s role as the key driver behind the country’s home broadband expansion, influencing the next stage of high-speed digital connectivity across both urban centers and rural regions.
