MUMBAI: Within two and a half years of its high-profile launch, Reliance Jio has hit the 300 million subscriber mark, according to a report by Press Trust of India. The target was achieved by 2 March 2019. Reliance Jio launched in September 2016.

In the ongoing Indian Premier League 2019, Jio has been celebrating its achievement of ‘300 million users’. Jio also became the fastest company to hit the 100 million subscriber mark within 170 days of its launch.

Jio trails behind Bharti Airtel that reported 340.3 crore subscribers at the end of January 2019. However, Airtel’s 300 million mark was achieved in the 19th year of its operations. The merger between Vodafone and Idea has created the largest player in the country with 400 million customers.
