Bharti Airtel is a publicly owned company headquartered in India. Founded in 1995, the company has approximately 18,970 employees and reported $24.2B in revenue as of 2025. Functioning as a multinational telecoms group, Bharti Airtel specializes in telecoms services.
On August 7, 2026, the Supreme Court sought responses from Bharti Airtel and Vodafone Idea on the Centre's appeal against a Bombay High Court judgment. This judgment had struck down the retrospective levy of one-time spectrum charges (OTSC), reviving a long-running dispute with financial implications of more than ₹20,000 crore for the telecom sector. Earlier the same day, Bharti Airtel reported its first-quarter performance for FY27, which beat estimates across most parameters. The company's topline growth stemmed from a sharp increase in average revenue per user (Arpu) and robust subscriber additions in both its India and Africa businesses. Airtel's Arpu reached ₹264 in Q1 FY27, representing a 5.4% year-on-year growth. The company aims to increase Arpu within its existing customer base until tariff hikes materialize.
