GUWAHATI, Dec 26: Reliance Jio has recorded strong growth in digital connectivity across the North East telecom circle during the first ten months of 2025, driven by rapid expansion of home broadband services and steady growth in wireless subscribers, according to monthly subscription data released by the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI).
Home broadband emerged as a major growth driver in the region. Between January and October 2025, Jio added 72,155 new home broadband subscribers across Arunachal Pradesh, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland and Tripura through a combination of JioFiber, JioAirFiber and fixed wireless 5G services. With this addition, Jio’s total home broadband connections in the North East have reached 323,140, indicating rising demand for high-speed internet in a region marked by challenging terrain and limited legacy broadband infrastructure.
