TRAI says 70-80% of India’s Mobile Data Usage Happens Indoors

TRAI says 70-80% of India’s Mobile Data Usage Happens Indoors

India's telecom usage is now predominantly indoors, and TRAI's new property rating framework puts digital connectivity on par with core utilities. TRAI's chairperson flagged a decisive shift: most mobile data is consumed inside homes, offices, malls, hospitals, and transit hubs. Connectivity inside buildings is moving from convenience to necessity. TRAI's 2024 Regulations introduce a voluntary, performance-based star rating that assesses how ready a property is to deliver high-quality broadband and mobile connectivity. The framework encourages developers to embed Digital Connectivity Infrastructure (DCI) at design stage, aligns with Digital India and Smart Cities Mission, and invites ministries and agencies to incorporate DCI into guidelines, tenders, and training.
