India's Telecom Revenue Expected to Grow 12-14% in FY27 with ARPU Rise
India's telecom industry revenue is projected to grow 12-14% in fiscal year 2027, driven mainly by a 10% increase in average revenue per user (ARPU), according to CareEdge Ratings. Subscriber growth is expected to remain moderate at 3-4% as the market nears maturity. The report highlights factors such as migration to 4G and 5G, premium plans, rising smartphone use, and increased data consumption supporting ARPU growth. A tariff revision is anticipated in the second half of FY27, nearly two years after the last hike in July 2024.
