New Delhi: After success in India, telecom major Reliance Jio sees global foray as an option, which is continuously under evaluation at the company, a senior company official said.
While speaking to the media at India Mobile Congress (IMC), Reliance Jio President Mathew Oommen said that “India is now a tier-1 plus country and there should be no apprehension in framing policies that are right for the nation. We think the opportunity for India to go global is big. Reliance will continue to review options to see how best to represent India globally and offer value to customers leveraging the technology capabilities that we have already operationalized in India.”
He said that to truly drive the Digital India vision, the government should start leveraging Rs75,700 crore Universal Services Obligation Fund (USOF) not just for mobile tower deployment, but to make devices and services affordable and accessible for individuals.
