The domestic fibre maker works closely with telecom giants like Reliance Jio and Bharti Airtel; both telcos are going aggressive on increasing the FTTH network footprint in large cities for triple-play services. As India moves closer to 5G commercial rollouts, HFCL believes that more relevant business opportunities will soon knock on their doors.
