Vodafone Idea 5G rollout hinges on monetisation, fundraise

Vodafone Idea chief executive officer Akshaya Moondra on Tuesday said the company’s 5G rollout will become clear once there’s clarity on fund raising plans as well as monetisation of services.

“The challenge, which we see today is that there’s no monetisation happening. In fact, the way 5G is priced today it is actually resulting in discounting of 4G also because whatever is being used on 5G that is not counted at all,” Moondra said during the October-December quarter earnings call with analysts.
