INDIA'S EPIC VOYAGE TO 6G THROUGH 2G TO 5G

With the Bharat 6G Vision Document, India is ready for setting the pace globally in the realm of a new generation of mobile technology

Having convincingly demonstrated the ability to develop and produce India Stacks for 4G and 5G, and having achieved the fastest rollout of 5G globally (both service providers reaching 3,000 cities and towns by 27th April 2023), India has raised full power for moving at top speed towards 6G R&D, standards and manufacturing.

With the launch of the Bharat 6G Vision document by the Prime Minister on 23rd March 2023, India has displayed foresight and started serious R&D preparation for a technology that is 7 to 10 years ahead. What this means is that, unlike technologies from 2G to 5G, where the country has been a mere adopter and user, in the case of 6G, India is aiming at “setting the future before it gets set” and is endeavouring to “find a high seat at the table of suppliers of gear and solutions”.

It is common knowledge that, in the early years, standards of new technologies get developed and set and that is what decides the players who will dominate the manufacturing as the technology starts to roll out. India is now all set to capture that prime spot.
