BSNL 4G launch date in India is almost here. BSNL has finally started receiving equipment from TCS and the telecom company is expected to launch its 4G services in the country by March-end or April, this year.
But wait, what 4G bands does BSNL support? BSNL was allotted the 800 MHz, 900 MHz, and 1800 MHz spectrum or the n105, n8, n5, n3 4G bands to improve its existing services.
It’s also important to note that BSNL had received a revival package of 1.64 Lakh crore last year. Mr. Purwar, the managing director and chairman of BSNL had said to bring BSNL 5G Services by August 2023 and 4G by November 2022. Though, there’s clearly a delay. However, the BSNL 4G launch date in India is finally near as the telecom company has started receiving the needed indigenous equipment from TCS as part of the BSNL TCS deal consortium.

BSNL customers have been long-awaiting the telecom brand to bring its 4G services in the country. Following is a timeline of the progress of the BSNL 4G Launch in India so far:
Last week, March 2023, BSNL deployed its first indigenous eNodeB hardware to launch 4G
eNodeB is a wireless base station to carry 4G communications
After the deployment of the same, BSNL has started to receive 4G equipment from TCS
These 4G equipment are part of a pre-order to pilot launch BSNL 4G
BSNL 4G is expected to be pilot launched in three district of the Punjab
The first areas in India to get BSNL 4G coverage are Ferozepur, Pathankot, and Amritsar.
It is also important to note that the approval of the complete tender of BSNL and TCS is still pending by the government and is expected to be completed soon. This pre-installation of BSNL 4G equipment will help the telecom brand to pilot launch its 4G services in the country starting from Punjab.
BSNL also is currently offering the cheapest yearly prepaid plan with 455 days validity, and 3GB data per day at only Rs.2998!
Three districts of Punjab are reportedly selected to receive BSNL 4G pilot launch service. The first three cities to get BSNL 4G are Ferozepur, Pathankot, and Amritsar. Note that the pilot launch is said to only start with these cities and as the 4G deployment progresses, the service will get available to other cities as well.
In an interview, telecom secretary K Rajaraman also said:
“This is a complicated tender because of the involvement of new technology, etc. It is not like a commodity that we can straightaway buy from the market. This is a very special tender. Therefore, people are taking all the precautions to ensure that everything is on board. We are in the final stages of evaluation.”

Tumkur 4g lunch date

When would BSNL will launch 4G in Bangalore ..
Siliguri BSNL 4g launch date
kab ayega 4g BSNL ka
How it is first 4G launch?
In Andhra we have many towns with BSNL 4G coverage from the year 2018.
https://www.newindianexpress.com/states/andhra-...
used BSNL 4G a couple of years back.. with speeds comparable to present day 4G speeds on some Jio/ AVOID networks.
Likewise for us when we travelled to rural placed in parts of Maharashtra or Madhya Pradesh where BSNL migrated fro. 2G to directly 4G.
If government cancels existing contracts, tenders and stops further tendering from vendors like Huawei, ZTE.. then what can companies do?
BSNL had been made to suffer under its management and geopolitical events, government policies.
Else their pan India rollout would have finished pre pandemic or at-least in the year of the lockdowns.. if Covid-19 had not hit.
Bull shit,they work well n respond immediately.present govt n jio purposefully degraded bsnl. Why the hell jio using bsnl towers . it's all corporate gimmick.still bsnl is efficient n cost worthy.i ported all my 4 sims to bsnl...
Does bsnl 43 recharge which offers 45 days validity allows outgoing call?
Good time to port to BSNL from Chortel/Vi?
What's their min rc tariff for otps/calls?
Ferozepur, Pathankot, and Amritsar - Why this kolaveri di..............
I think if a stable connection is your major requirement, its better to wait and see how the BSNL's network performs post its 4G launch and then decide.
2. Here are the minimum recharge tariff plans for BSNL, Airtel, Jio with SMS service that I found:
For BSNL - 43rs plan for 45 days (includes SMS - please do confirm if it really supports incoming/outgoing)
Jio - 75rs plan with 23 days (only for jiophone users)
otherwise, 149rs plan with 20 days validity
Airtel - 155 for 24 days
If other dimers know of any other better minimum recharge plans apart from top-ups, please do share.
3. Pata nahi but these are only the starting areas... certainly BSNL will pilot launch the network in other cities too:)
Hope this helps

prepared (structured) article 👩🏻💻Vrushali ben✍🏻💭.
Liked it🤍💙🙂
For those reading it/ coming across it, after ages...
can consider annotating it with the year (number: 2023).
I mean, this👌🏽 is already good. But in youtube comments section I often find it a bit annoying, even frustrating.. when it says N years/ months back.
And now in DesiDime too, it is hard or perhaps not possible to find the timestamp or datestamp of a post.
Or maybe on the non mobile-site it is possible.
