“We are the leading wired broadband internet provider not just in the city but also the largest in the country,” ACT managing director Sunder Raja said at press conference held on Sunday.

ACT Fibernet had grown 43 per cent per annum in the past three years whereas other service providers, including telecommunication companies, had registered a growth of only three per cent, said Pramod Kabra, a partner in IVFA that has stakes in ACT Fibernet.

ACT Fibernet is also planning a Wi-Fi zone as part of a pilot project at Inorbit mall in Madhapur.
