<keyword id="19896380" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Reliance-Industries" source="keywords">Reliance Industries</keyword>' 2024 annual report revealed that <keyword id="20671686" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="JioBharat" source="keywords">JioBharat</keyword>, an affordable keypad smartphone, has achieved an impressive 50 per cent <keyword id="20038792" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="market-share" source="keywords">market share</keyword> in the <keyword id="3342432" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="sub-rs-1" source="Orion">sub-Rs 1</keyword>,000 segment. Launched with the mission to empower every Indian with digital services, JioBharat has marked a significant step towards digital freedom for the 250 million feature phone users in India, bridging the digital divide like never before. Since its launch a year ago, JioBharat has been transforming lives by offering features and digital capabilities such as UPI, JioCinema, and JioTV, enabling various segments of society to achieve more. This affordable device not only empowers users with smartphone capabilities but also provides high-quality and affordable data, making it accessible to the common people. Despite the recent industry-wide tariff increases, <keyword id="2003276" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Jio" source="Orion">Jio</keyword> has maintained consistent pricing for JioBharat, allowing users to enjoy full digital capabilities at just Rs 123 per month. In contrast, the most affordable plans from other operators start at Rs 199 per month and enables access to limited functionality, restricted to voice and SMS services, as their feature phones do not support data or LTE usage. In his letter to shareholders, <keyword id="19916798" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Mukesh-Ambani" source="keywords">Mukesh Ambani</keyword>, Chairman of Reliance Industries Ltd, stated, "The launch of the JioBharat phone is another revolutionary step towards bridging the country's digital divide. A smartphone at the price of a feature phone, the JioBharat phone will go a long way in realizing a 2G-mukt Bharat." In 2016, when Jio was launched, it left no stone unturned to democratise internet access and pass the benefits of technology to every Indian. With affordable high-speed data and a ubiquitous network, technology was no longer a privilege for a select few. The subsequent launch of affordable devices like <keyword id="22711694" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="jiophone" source="keywords">JioPhone</keyword> and the availability of affordable wired broadband (<keyword id="20282548" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="jiofiber" source="keywords">JioFiber</keyword>) has truly democratised data connectivity. "With the launch of Jio 4G in 2016, we set out on a journey to make digital inclusion in India a reality. Jio turned a Data Dark India into a Data Rich nation, supplying every Indian home with affordable, high-speed 4G data. And this year, Jio has further enhanced the country's digital infrastructure by rolling out its True5G network across India in world-record time," states Mukesh Ambani's letter to shareholders in the latest annual report released on Thursday.

JioBharat captures 50% market share in sub-Rs 1,000 segment: Reliance annual report

Cut to 2023 and Jio is set to disrupt the market again with JioBharat the cheapest <keyword id="122479" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="4g" source="Orion">4G</keyword> feature phone priced at ₹999. Analysts at Jefferies Equity Research while analysing the impact of the launch, believe that over the next few years this will hit Bharti Airtel, its biggest competitor, with a potential 1-4% reduction in their India-mobile subscribers. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Jio expected to gain market share" comment="subhead" text="Jio expected to gain market share">Jio expected to gain market share</cmsannotation> JioBharat's competitive pricing and decent device quality are expected to attract existing feature phone users. Those nearing the end of their device life could potentially save 26% on their overall mobile expenses (device + service) by switching to JioBharat. However, users who are content with their current handsets may not switch. As a result, JioBharat is estimated to have an annual addressable market of approximately 60-65 million users. Based on this, the report anticipates Reliance Jio gaining around 55 million subscribers by March 2026. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Airtel’s subscriber estimates lowered" comment="subhead" text="Airtel’s subscriber estimates lowered">Airtel’s subscriber estimates lowered</cmsannotation> Bharti Airtel currently has around 130 million active 2G subscribers and over 100 million paying voice subscribers, giving it a substantial 40-50% share in the 250 million <keyword id="8627917" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="feature-phone" source="Orion">feature-phone</keyword> market. Despite having a better <keyword id="6359918" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="network" source="Orion">network</keyword> compared to other 2G operators, its dominant position in the feature-phone market may result in higher subscriber losses. As a consequence, the report projects Bharti Airtel to experience voice subscriber churn of approximately 17 million by March 2026, leading to a potential 1-4% reduction in their India-mobile subscriber estimates for the fiscal years 2024 to 2026. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="What else is affecting Bharti Airtel’s growth?" comment="subhead" text="What else is affecting Bharti Airtel’s growth?">What else is affecting Bharti Airtel’s growth?</cmsannotation> Jio's focus on subscriber gains through network capacity additions and JioBharat launch may delay tariff hikes. Tariff hike assumptions are adjusted from 15% by end of calendar year 2923 to 20% in Q2 FY2025, resulting in a 3-5% cut to FY2024-2025 India Mobile average revenue per user (ARPU) estimates. The recent 68% devaluation of Nigerian Naira vs USD affects Bharti Airtel's Africa growth until Q1 FY2025, leading to a 17-21% reduction in Africa revenues and Ebitda. The market value of Airtel Africa has also corrected by 15% due to the Naira devaluation. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="BUY rating maintained" comment="subhead" text="BUY rating maintained">BUY rating maintained</cmsannotation> Considering the delay in tariff hikes and the potential subscriber churn due to JioBharat, the analysts have revised their FY2024-2026 India revenue/ EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortisation) estimates for Bharti Airtel, reducing them by 2-5%. However, it is still anticipated that Bharti Airtel will achieve strong growth with 15-16% CAGR in India revenue and EBITDA over FY 2023-2026, along with improving return on capital employed (ROCE) and generating more free cash flow. Furthermore, the impact of JioBharat may accelerate the move towards a duopoly in the market, leading us to raise the target enterprise value (EV)/EBITDA for India to 10x (in line with the 5-year average). So the analysts maintain a BUY rating with a revised price target of ₹1,020. The BUY rating is based on a favourable risk-reward scenario at the current price levels. Key factors contributing to this recommendation are Bharti's significant share gain in 4G subscribers, their intention to increase ARPU, and an optimistic tariff outlook driven by the government's stake in the stock. These factors align to present a compelling case for investors to consider buying Bharti's shares.<div type="image" title="Bharti Airtel" msid="102104466" hostid="261" sizebytes="22694"></div>
