the opportunities
Financial exibility, strong balance sheet
and operating eciencies
We have large residual opportunities in India and Africa;
and are well positioned to capture future growth through
our network of towers and base stations, superior
spectrum bank, and largest layout of optic bre.
Airtel is growing across key growth markets with a
subscriber base of 342+ Mn. We are the only telecom
operator with a diversied portfolio in India; and we are
suitably positioned to capitalise on the opportunities ahead.
We continue to focus on de-leveraging through strategic
initiatives taken in India and Africa which include tower
sales, and strategic divestment of two African countries.
We realised ~USD 1.6 Bn from tower sales and sales in
3 countries are work-in-progress. We are also achieving
high operating eciencies and strengthening our war
on waste across geographies.
