Around 12 lakh mobile and internet subscribers lost in April

By the end of April, total mobile subscribers in Bangladesh dropped to 17.41 crore from 17.46 in March.

Meanwhile, the number of internet subscribers dropped from 11.61 crores in March to 11.54 crores in April. The drop was only observed in mobile internet subscribers as the number of users in broadband and fixed internet remained the same.

The country’s leading telecommunication industries suffered crucially. Robia Axiata Ltd suffered the largest loss of 2.9 lakh mobile users, while Grameenphone’s loss stood at around 2.4 lakh users and Banglalink saw a drop of only 0.6 lakh users.
