Kathmandu, October 29

In a significant step toward expanding and improving its 4G footprint, Ncell has brought 20 new towers into operation across various locations within the past 10 days, enabling customers in these areas to enjoy enhanced voice quality and high-speed data services.

As part of its ongoing initiative to extend services and improve network quality, Ncell has added new towers across several local levels, primarily in Madhesh Province, along with Bagmati and Koshi Provinces.

Following the resumption of facilitation from the Nepal Telecommunications Authority (NTA), the company accelerated its tower installation efforts even during the festive season, successfully activating 20 new sites in record time. The addition of these towers ensures better network access and faster 4G connectivity for customers in the respective regions.

The operation of these new towers ensures improved network access and faster 4G connectivity for customers in the respective areas. In Madhesh Province, Ncell installed 13 new towers in Parwanipur (Bara), Pokharia, Pakahamainpur, and Birgunj (Parsa), Balan Bihul (Saptari), Janakpur, Kataiya, Kamala, and Bideha (Dhanusha), Kaudena and Motipur (Sarlahi); and Yamunamai and Madhav Narayan (Rautahat).

Similarly, six towers have been installed and brought into operation in Koshi Province’s Inaruwa, Barju, Harinagar and Gadhi (Sunsari), and Babiyabirta and Majhare (Morang). One tower was installed and brought into operation in Hetauda (Makawanpur) of Bagmati Province.

“We are expanding and enhancing our 4G network in line with our commitment to enhance digital connectivity across Nepal. Ncell has successfully brought 20 new towers in less than 10 days ensuring wider access to modern mobile broadband and quality voice services. I am also pleased to share that within the next two days; we plan to bring 10 more towers on air to better serve our customers. This expansion demonstrates Ncell’s ongoing commitment to strengthening its 4G network and improving access to reliable mobile services for communities nationwide,” said Upanga Dutta, Chief Consumer Business Officer of Ncell.

Even during the period when the import of new equipment was restricted, Ncell continued expanding and improving its services by installing and operating more than 40 new towers across different parts of the country using existing and spare equipment.

Under its ongoing 4G expansion and enhancement plan, Ncell aims to install over 170 additional new towers across all provinces within the next two months. This continued rollout will further strengthen network access and enhance Quality of Service (QoS) for customers nationwide.

Launched in May 2017, Ncell’s 4G service is designed to deliver world-class connectivity and a superior customer experience through advanced technology. The service has now been expanded to all 77 districts, providing 4G access to more than 95 percent of Nepal’s population.
