Vi (Vodafone Idea), today announced the launch of its 5G services in 8 more cities including Ahmedabad, Rajkot, Surat, Vadodara, Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, Nashik, Kozhikode and Malappuram, following earlier roll outs this month in Mysuru, Nagpur, Jaipur and Sonipat.

Vi is also set to launch 5G in Meerut, Vizag, Madurai and Agra in the coming days.

This is part of Vi’s phased 5G rollout across 17 priority circles where it holds 5G spectrum. The company had earlier launched 5G services in Mumbai, Delhi-NCR, Bengaluru, Chandigarh, and Patna. With the latest additions, Vi 5G now spans 17 cities across key circles including Mumbai, Maharashtra, Delhi, Karnataka, Punjab, Bihar, Rajasthan, Haryana, Gujarat and Kerala.

Vi’s 5G launch has shown strong momentum. In areas where Vi 5G is live, over 70% of eligible users have already experienced the benefits of Vi’s next-gen network; a clear indicator of positive reception and growing demand.

Users in the launched cities with 5G‑enabled devices can access Vi 5G services starting today. As part of a special introductory offer, Vi is providing unlimited 5G data on recharge plans starting from ₹299. Benefits include HD streaming, low‑latency gaming, video conferencing, faster downloads, and real-time cloud access.

To ensure superior network performance and better energy efficiency, Vi is leveraging AI‑powered Self‑Organising Networks (SON) and has partnered with global tech vendors Nokia, Ericsson and Samsung across these regions. This collaboration ensures smooth integration of Vi’s 4G and 5G infrastructure while supporting its sustainability goals.
