The company said the 'Airtel 5G Plus' will bolster the entire portfolio of services that it offers.

"In addition, it will allow superfast access to high definition video streaming, gaming, multiple chatting, instant uploading of photos and more," it added.

With this launch, India will get a fillip to economic growth as the 5G services will help various sectors like education, healthcare, manufacturing, agriculture, mobility and logistics, the statement said.
