Soon Bharti Airtel will take over Telenor India for an undisclosed amount in all seven circles of its range. After coming Jio, the Norways’ telecom company Telenor is facing huge competitive pressure and decided to sell its India business to a giant of telecom sector- Bharti Airtel.

Telenor India’s operations and services will continue as normal until the completion of the transaction.

“On completion, the proposed acquisition will undergo seamless integration, both on the customer as well as the network side, and further strengthen our market position in several key circles.
