Idea Cellular, the country’s third largest telecom operator, has completed the rollout of Voice over LTE (VoLTE) service across all its 4G circles with the launch of five new circles. Now the Aditya Birla group company offers VoLTE service across 20 telecom circles in the country.

Idea has launched VoLTE services in Himachal Pradesh, Odisha, Assam, North East Service Area (NESA) and Jammu & Kashmir, expanding VoLTE presence across all its 20 4G circles.

“With the completion of last phase of VoLTE rollout, Idea is now the only operator to offer pan India integrated 2G, 3G, 4G and VoLTE services. Through our collaboration with 10 leading device brands, which cover 75 per cent of the smartphone market, we will cater to our growing base of VoLTE users across the country,” said Sashi Shankar, Chief Marketing Officer at Idea Cellular.

As part of the launch offer, Idea is giving 30 GB free data to its VoLTE users. Customers will get 10 GB data on making the first VoLTE call, additional 10 GB on giving feedback on the service after 4 weeks, and another 10 GB on giving feedback after 8 weeks.

VoLTE delivers high-definition voice services over 4G/LTE network which makes voice sound more natural as compared with a standard voice call, while eliminating background noise. It also offers faster call connection and better battery utilisation.
