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.
