Capital Expenditure Plans
- Capex in FY26 is elevated (~INR 6,500 crores YTD), driven by growth (tower and tenancy additions, upgrades, solar, batteries) and maintenance of aging towers.
- Growth capex is customer-driven via specific orders, including solar panels, smart meters, and lithium batteries.

- Strategic investments in digital and AI-led capabilities to enhance asset visibility, operational control, and efficiency across the network.
