INDIA'S JIO SET TO SIGN $1.7 BILLION DEAL WITH NOKIA FOR 5G EQUIPMENT - ECONOMIC

BENGALURU :India's Reliance Jio Infocomm is likely to sign a contract worth $1.7
billion with Nokia this week to purchase 5G network equipment, the Economic
Times reported on Thursday, citing people aware of the matter.

The contract could be signed as early as Thursday in Helsinki, Finland, where
Nokia is headquartered, the report added.

Jio and Nokia did not immediately respond to Reuters' requests for a comment.

The telecom arm of Reliance Industries had chosen Nokia as a major supplier in
October last year as Jio geared up to expand wireless services in India.

Jio snapped up airwaves worth $11 billion in a 5G spectrum auction last August
and had launched 5G services in several cities. It is also working with
Alphabet's Google to launch a budget 5G smartphone.

The Economic Times said that HSBC, JP Morgan and Citigroup are among those
backing Jio's 5G-related purchases, while European export credit agency Finnvera
will be issuing guarantees to the lenders to extend offshore loans to Jio.

Swedish telecommunication company Ericsson had in October last year, announced a
partnership with Jio to build a 5G standalone network in India.

Earlier this week, Jio announced the launch of a 4G-feature phone in an attempt
to reach those who have not yet migrated to smartphones, although analysts said
the move was unlikely to disrupt the Indian telecom market.

Shares of Reliance, which has the heaviest weightage in the blue-chip Nifty 50,
climbed as much as 2.3 per cent after the report to be among the index's top
gainers.
