General Discussion Cheap mobile internet probably did more for digital India than we realise..

Post image

A lot of India's digital growth happened alongside the shift to affordable mobile data.
People who once depended on computers or cybercafes could suddenly attend classes, watch tutorials, make payments and run small businesses from their phones. Jio played a major role in making mobile internet more affordable, although smartphones, UPI and other services also contributed to this change.
With the Jio IPO in the news, it'll be interesting to see how investors value a business that helped enable this much wider digital shift.

Um why should investors value something that happened a decade ago? What matters is how the company is doing currently and whether it has a promising future.

People fail to realize that this is just optics correction. It can never lead to real progress. Real change will come from R&D and creating products that world wants to buy from us.

Power of having enough money to buy the government. I remember the free services in the guise of testing. And how BSNL was sabotaged to help Jio get a foothold.
