Pakistan Telecommunication Company Limited (PTCL) is currently working on getting the final nod from authorities to merge Ufone and Telenor.
After this, the mergeco of Ufone and Telenor as a brand will be dissolved, said Hatim Bamatraf, CEO and president of PTCL.
So eventually, 73 million customers, with the majority of them as prepaid 4G and mergeco, will have the largest network infrastructure.
The merger will first go through full operational integration, after which Telenor will be formally dissolved, a process that is expected to take several months.
This will mark the final stage of the merger, after which Telenor will cease to exist as a separate entity.
The decision on the brand name will be taken after required regulatory approvals.
Nice ptcl
So is not a merger. It’s a take over
So when Mobilink merged with Warid, and it became Jazz, was that also a take over?
Please educate yourself before posting, it doesn’t make you look smart.
It’s a clear take over, not a merger, wducate yourself first. Mobilink took over warid, and now ufone is taking over telenor
Another multinational exit, how many to go. What a vision sarrr
Off topic, but whatever happened to the DTH license that PTCL obtained around a decade ago? Why does no one seem to talk about it anymore?
The way load sheeding effect ufone operation what will be result of its merger with telnor ? Customer satisfaction should be at its best.
PTCL Group reporting Rs 3.1 billion profit in Q1 2026 is definitely a positive sign, especially considering the company was previously in loss, now that PTCL has come out of losses and with the Telenor and Ufone integration in progress, it is expected that they will invest in improving the network, and they should do so, many users complain that when electricity goes out, signals drop or internet speed becomes very slow, so this is the right time for PTCL to use its earnings to improve network stability, backup power systems, and overall service quality so customers can actually feel the improvement
