Vodafone-Idea Limited (VIL), in a statement, denied reports of closing down six exiting circles, namely, Bihar, Himachal Pradesh, Odisha, Jammu & Kashmir, North-East and Assam, The Economic Times reports.
Earlier, a Bank of America Merril Lynch report said that the teleco was likely to exit the six circles in C-Circle after consequently losing revenue market share with share below 20 per cent.
According to financial investment management company- JM Financial, Idea lost revenue share in most of the circles where the merger of Vodafone and Idea had happened.
JM also said that telecom sector entrant Reliance Jio, which overtook Vodafone-Idea to become India's largest operator at the expense of VIL and other smaller telecoms.
