Odisha’s leading
digital service provider, Reliance Jio, has once again underlined its 5G
network leadership by delivering an exceptional peak download speed of 333.47
Mbps across busy hotspots in Brahmapur city, according to the latest
Independent Drive Test (IDT) results released by the Telecom Regulatory
Authority of India (TRAI). The performance firmly establishes Jio’s 5G
superiority, with speeds more than double that of its nearest competitor.
The TRAI assessment
evaluated real-world network performance at multiple high-footfall locations
across Brahmapur city to reflect the experience of stationary users. These
included the Brahmapur New Bus Stand, District Collector Office, Government
Science College Chhatrapur, MKCG Medical College, Municipal Corporation Office,
Rock Garden, RTO Office Chhatrapur, and the revered Shree Maa Budhi Thakurani
Temple. In these tests, Jio emerged on top with a remarkable 333.47 Mbps 5G
download speed, while Airtel followed with 148.09 Mbps.
Conducted as part of
TRAI’s routine Quality of Service (QoS) assessments, the tests were carried out
between December 16 and 18, 2025, covering Brahmapur city and adjoining areas.
The comprehensive evaluation included a 360-km drive test across the city, a
4.1-km walk test, and assessments at eight designated hotspot locations,
ensuring a robust and realistic analysis of network performance.
Jio also led another
critical performance metric—latency. The network recorded an impressive low
latency of just 24.71 milliseconds, nearly 50 percent lower than competing
networks. This significant advantage reinforces Jio’s capability to deliver
seamless video calls, smoother online gaming, and superior real-time digital
experiences.
Further strengthening
its dominance, Jio topped the charts in overall data download speed across
Brahmapur city and nearby areas, including the scenic Gopalpur Sea Beach and
the bustling Brahmapur Railway Station. The network delivered an average
overall download speed of 242.83 Mbps, followed by Airtel at 106.15 Mbps,
Vodafone Idea Limited (VIL) at 20.31 Mbps, and BSNL at 10.55 Mbps. Jio also
demonstrated strong upload performance, recording an overall upload speed of
17.54 Mbps.
With consistent
excellence across key network parameters, Reliance Jio continues to set
benchmarks in voice clarity, ultra-fast mobile data, and low-latency
connectivity, accelerating the vision of Digital India. As per the latest TRAI
telecom subscription data, Jio leads Odisha’s wireless, wireline, and fixed
wireless access (5G FWA) segments, serving over 1.71 crore mobile subscribers
and more than 6.66 lakh JioFiber and JioAirFiber home broadband customers in
the state. This growth is driven by Jio’s expansive 4G and 5G infrastructure
and customer-centric approach.
The detailed
Independent Drive Tests were conducted under the supervision of the TRAI
Regional Office, Hyderabad, to capture network performance across diverse
environments, including urban zones, institutional hotspots, and rural
residential areas. According to TRAI, the Brahmapur assessment covered
surrounding regions such as Ralaba, Golanthara, Girisola, Chikiti, Bendalia,
Pathara, Chhatrapur, Aryapalli, Ganjam, Humma, Khandadiuli, Purusottampur,
Kavisuryanagar, Baragam, Burupada, Sheragada, Pattapur, and Digapahandi. Walk
tests were specifically conducted at Brahmapur Railway Station and Gopalpur Sea
Beach, further validating Jio’s consistent real-world network performance
across varied usage scenarios.
