The report also highlighted user satisfaction ratings (out of 5 stars). Jazz received the highest consumer rating of 3.48, indicating that technical speed is translating into actual user satisfaction.

Note on 5G: While 4G speeds are stabilizing, these reports come at a critical time as the PTA prepares for the 5G auction later this year. Operators are currently optimizing existing towers to meet the high-capacity demands of 5G rollout in 7 major cities.
