Buoyed by merger and network integration, mobile phone operator Robi witnessed a robust 89 percent growth in data revenue in 2017.
In the year, the operator grabbed 9.1 million new customers to reach 42.9 million subscribers base that also helped to bag a strong revenue growth of 29.7 percent towards totaling Taka 68.3 billion.
“With 4G and MNP coming up, we are confident that we can provide significantly better customer experience in terms of data speed and stronger network to our subscribers,” Robi Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Mahtab Uddin Ahmed said in a statement while announcing the financial result.
The operator, however, said that despite encouraging growth in terms of both subscriber and revenue, it was unable to register any profit in 2017.
