Airtel Q1 profit seen rising 36%-45% as subscriber adds and ARPU strengthen
Analysts expect Bharti Airtel’s June-quarter sales to grow 14%-16% year on year, supported by 50-60 lakh sequential subscriber additions, 2G-to-4G upgrades and a projected monthly ARPU of Rs 258-Rs 261. Investors will watch mobile margins, 5G spending and data-centre costs.
Bharti Airtel is expected to post 36%-45% YoY Q1 profit growth on 14%-16% sales growth, aided by 50-60 lakh subscriber additions, modest ARPU improvement, 2G-to-4G migration and 5G/network expansion. Analysts will track India mobile growth, margins and data-centre costs.
Why this matters
The outlook follows Airtel leading June wireless subscriber additions and expanding AI fraud controls. Higher subscriber adds and 2G-to-4G upgrades could reinforce its narrowing gap with Jio and support revenue growth.
