Ringer row: Reliance Jio increases ring time to 25 seconds

KOLKATA: Reliance Jio has increased to 25 seconds the ring duration for outgoing calls from its network.

But Bharti Airtel and Vodafone Idea are not pleased with this five second increase, and are sticking to their demand for a minimum 30-second ring duration.

The Mukesh Ambani-owned telco has “increased the ring time for outgoing calls to 25 seconds — from 20 seconds — as an interim step till the sector regulator issues final guidelines on the matter,” a person aware of the developments told ET.
