Bharat Sanchar Nigam LTD

BHARAT SANCHAR NIGAM LIMITED is a state-owned Indian telecommunications operator headquartered in New Delhi, commonly referred to as BSNL. Public records and press reporting describe it as providing mobile and fixed-line/broadband services, with leadership appointments (CMD) reported as Robert Jerard Ravi in an interim capacity in mid-2024.

In routing and peering datasets, BSNL is strongly associated with the “National Internet Backbone” under AS9829 (AS-BSNL), with public entries visible in PeeringDB and multiple BGP/ASN directories. These sources indicate active global BGP presence and ongoing prefix origination under APNIC allocations, but they do not fully describe internal topology.

User-review signals are skewed negative, with recurring complaints about customer support responsiveness and service stability on major review platforms and discussion forums; positive notes appear but are less consistent. Because review quality varies by region and timeframe, the overall reputation is best treated as uneven.
