Bharti Airtel has reached an agreement with satellite communication providers on the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India's proposal to create a distinct network provider layer, facilitating partnerships with existing telcos.

Bharti Airtel is featured as a top holding in the BSE Saatvik 100 index, which is based on Saatvik principles of investing.

Airtel Money, the NBFC arm of Bharti Airtel, has commenced its commercial operations as a Type II Non-Deposit accepting Non-Banking Financial Company following the grant of a licence from the Reserve Bank of India, with plans for capitalisation of Rs 20,000 crore over the next few years.

Nomura has reiterated its Buy rating on Bharti Airtel and raised its target price to Rs 2,355, citing sustained ARPU growth, strong free cash flow generation, and attractive valuations. The brokerage expects Airtel to deliver 14 EBITDA CAGR and 14 operating free cash flow CAGR over FY26-FY29, supported by an expected tariff hike in FY27 and forecasts around 9 ARPU CAGR for the India mobility business. Nomura believes Airtel deserves to trade at a premium to global telecom peers due to India's favorable market structure and multiple growth opportunities, although it flagged the company's foreign institutional investor ownership as a near-term risk.

Bharti Airtel experienced the largest decline, losing Rs 35,615.21 crore, with its valuation now at Rs 11,27,348.09 crore.
