In other news, BSNL’s revenue declined in Andaman and Nicobar, Kerala, Gujarat, Chennai, Telangana, Karnataka, Jammu and Kashmir, Punjab, and Uttar Pradesh (West).
According to the journal, BSNL’s revenue in Uttar Pradesh (West) declined the most, by 19% to Rs 327 crore, followed by Punjab, which fell 12.5% to Rs 857 crore, and Kerala, which has a high revenue generating circle, also suffered a 2% drop in revenue to Rs 1,656 crore in the previous fiscal year.
Last month, BSNL CMD PK Purwar ordered the chief general managers (CGMs) of the circles to act quickly to halt the revenue decline. The report ascribed the income reduction to subscriber loss in the lack of 4G services.
