Jio Platforms IPO: Akash Ambani says Jio carries over 60% of India's data traffic, eyes major share of $1.4 tn digital economy

Our read

Jio Platforms will more likely than not complete its IPO on the strength of its data-traffic leadership, with investor debate shifting from scale to monetisation.

For operators

Jio's claim of carrying over 60% of India's data traffic, with per-GB prices among the world's lowest, suggests cheap mobile data will keep feeding online and app-led shopping toward the $1.4 trillion digital economy forecast for FY31, so retailers should keep investing in mobile-first channels.

Watch

Jio's data-traffic share above the 60% cited, in its first results after listing, would mean the lead is widening, leaving rivals less room to win share.
