"We are doing studies around our 4G LTE network and the areas that we want to cover initially. We want to be the first operator in the country to launch 4G services using the FDD-LTE technology," Bali further added.

"We will be going by cluster by cluster, where demand is high for high-speed mobile broadband services and people are willing to pay for high-speed data services."
