Airtel Africa's growth continues offsetting loses of parent companySeptember 30, 2019In late August 2019, Airtel Africa passed the 100 million subscribers mark in Africa for the first time. This milestone is impressive since its parent company, Bharti Airtel has been struggling in its core market of India. Bharti Airtel has spent billions to upgrade its LTE network and defend its market share against a hostile competitor, Reliance Jio. However, Airtel’s strategy of fending off Jio has failed as the latter has been able to gain market share by building an extensive 4G network coupled with extremely low entry level prices. For instance, in the last 2 years Bharti Airtel subscribers in India have declined from 381 million in 2017 to the current figure of 324 million. In contrast during the same 2-year period, Airtel Africa’s subsidiaries added 20 million subscribers. Indeed, Bharti Airtel is becoming increasingly dependent on the continued growth of its Africa operations.Subscribers Only

Airtel Africa makes its fifth market consolidation move by acquiring Tigo RwandaJanuary 17, 2018Airtel Africa confirmed that they have entered an agreement with Millicom to acquire Tigo Rwanda, marking their fifth market consolidation move in Africa since 2013. Whilst the details of the acquisition and approval from Rwanda’s Utilities Regulatory Authority (RURA) have not been finalised, Airtel has spoken about the potential changes that will take place in the Rwandese telecoms market. Airtel Rwanda has experienced some volatility in the Rwandan market as overall subscriptions shrunk by 6% between Q4 2016 – Q3 2017 ,this acquisition will consolidate Airtel Rwanda’s position to become the leading operator in the Rwandese mobile market which now serves 8 million subscribers between three mobile networks with 68% mobile penetration. • As of Q3 2017, market share by subscriptions was split between MTN (44%), Tigo (36%) and Airtel (20%). • Millicom and Bharti Airtel both have existing plans to consolidate their assets across Africa and recently completed a merger of their respective Ghanaian mobile networks in November 2017. • If the acquisition is approved by RURA, Airtel is set to become the largest mobile operator in Rwanda with a forecasted market share of 54-56% of the market once Tigo’s subscribers are absorbed into Airtel’s network.Subscribers Only
