Idea can't launch 4G LTE in Delhi, as they don't have enough liberalized spectrum.. But they have enough liberalized contiguous 1800MHz band 3 spectrum to launch in MP+CG, Mah, Kerala, TN, AP, Karnataka, Haryana, Punjab, North-East.. They recently agreed to buy Videocon's spectrum and then they can launch in Gujarat and UP-West..

Even I have seen Idea's 4G signals in my town Sivakasi, in TN circle, where even Airtel has NOT started 4G...

Not possible on Dec using 2300MHz, whereas 4G launch is possible in 1800MHz.. Idea has liberated 4G spectrum on band 3 (1800MHz) in AP circle.. Only Aircel and RJio has Band 40 (2300MHz) spectrum in AP.. Even if Idea is going to buy 2300MHz from Aircel (not likely) then they need 45 days notification period for spectrum trading..

No. Idea is a very small baby here in tn. They don't have proper 2g coverage in our small town itself. They have tied up with Vodafone for 2g and 3g icra. But voice stv tariff will not be applicable when using Vodafone network.

Got sms from idea to collect 4G sim from nearby idea store. I have Karnataka circel idea prepaid. Prebooking will get you 100MB per month free for 3 months.

LOL to 100mb free, I need a GB per day for normal uses.

Well, one speedtest trial uses minimum 55MB of 4G data.. After just two speedtests, the FREE data + some main balance will be gone...

Idea's 4G seems not be quite good in terms of speed. Even Idea 3G offers similar speeds.

Idea has 10 circles where it has atleast 5MHz neutral spectrum. It's obvious that if Idea launches 4G as Narrow Band FDD, it will not be a proper business case.

Better NOT go for this.. This is NOT applicable if you have used Idea app earlier, I guess.. Further if you are an existing data users, then you may get just 150MB only.. 1GB is rarely given and mostly to new data users..
