In today’s always-on world, broadband applications with high speed internet connectivity are becoming equally imperative for residents, businesses and government. In the case of businesses, uninterrupted and fast internet can aid companies to keep costs down, target customers better and easily proceed with trade and business in markets around the world. Likewise, internet service enables governments to function quickly and efficiently at much lower costs. While India’s broadband market holds a huge potential in the context of rocketing internet consumption, the sector is also affected by several issues like presence of various localized and unauthorised players who neither follow the guidelines of customer privacy and network security nor comply with the taxation requirements and poor performance of current conventional fixed line telephony providers with out-dated ADSL and VDSL technology, who are unable to serve the modern-day customer’s demands.
With the intention to bridge this gap and provide high quality internet at affordable costs, Gurgaon based internet service provider, Timbl ventures onto fibre technology and partnership business with cable operators. Kapil Dev Kumar, MD and Co-Founder of Timbl (RI Networks Pvt. Ltd) says, “Timbl was conceived with the goal of serving affordable high quality broadband to public covering large geography.

partnership model which comprises local network operators. We leverage on our local partners’ understanding of the local landscape and their expertise in deploying network rapidly at low cost, while working on FTTX technologies and Ethernet over Co-axial cable technology depending on partner’s choice.”
