India’s digital pathway: Not roses all the way, thorns aplenty, tooedit
Improve broadband speed and capacity to enhance economic benefits: While mobile broadband take-up is high, we need to understand that our mobile broadband speeds are only about one-third the global average of 23.6 Mbps (EY). If we are so vis-a-vis global average, one can well imagine how poorly placed we’d be compared to the better regimes. One must also realise that high broadband speeds are required to extract maximum economic benefits from broadband and reduce the quality issues that plague us.
