  • The second-largest provider of services in India, Bharti Airtel, has invested INR430.84 billion ($5.45 billion) to purchase spectrum in 19867MHz across various frequency bands. Airtel is primarily focused in the 3300MHz, and the 26GHz bands and has purchased also spectrum in the 1800MHz, 900MHz and 2100MHz bands.
