Gross Revenue of two private operators that is Airtel and Vodafone/Idea has also come down in 2017-18 and 2018-19, it was stated in the written reply.
For BSNL and MTNL, stiff competition in mobile segment, high employee cost and absence of
4G services (expect in few places for BSNL) in the data-centric telecom market is eroding their competitive strength.
