Tata Play Fiber charts 400G path to super-fast Internet in India

Tata Play Fiber set out to enhance the scale and agility of its regional networks. It wanted to enable an immediate 10-fold increase in capacity and set its course to 400G.

“We are a young company that aspires to become the best Internet experience player in India,” says Sachin Deshpande, senior vice president of technology and field service delivery at Tata Play Fiber.

The company’s customers enjoy 1-Gbps Internet, with a consistent experience across their heaviest streaming, gaming, work-from-home, and smart home applications. Attractive plans and excellent customer service lure more and more customers.

Sachin says the company is planning for a fast growth on the back of the Superlative Customer experience.

“We saw the blazing bandwidth demands at the start of the pandemic, and it’s not really going down,” says Sachin. “When you couple the enhanced bandwidth consumption with our business growth, we need to be prepared for the future.” 

The potential is immense: Less than half of the people in India had Internet as of 2022.

Tata Play Fiber can transform the lives of people across the markets that it operates, whether they use the Internet to relax, work, or run their smart homes. Gigabit Internet can also support post-pandemic recovery for small businesses.

“After two years of the pandemic, people and businesses are sharply increasing their activities,” says Sachin. “We expect to see rapid subscriber growth in our middle-size and big cities.”

Sachin anticipates that the superlative quality of Experience will drive even more customer demand. “Our per-subscriber broadband consumption is increasing as people have more Internet-connected devices at home and increasingly switch to unlimited data plans,” he says.
