Singtel's postpaid revenue slips 4.3% to $67 per user
As it added 42,000 in their postpaid subscriber base.
For RHB, Singtel's Singapore business is chugging along as its Australian business is feeling more heat.
Whilst Singtel added the highest number of postpaid subscribers in the industry at 42,000 in 1Q17, postpaid average revenue per user (APRU) slipped 4.3% YoY to $67 as the strong growth in mobile data was not sufficient to offset pressures on roaming and usage revenue.
The higher takeup of SIM-only plans also contributed to a further dilution in ARPU. Consequently, mobile service revenue fell 2% YoY. 63% of its postpaid base are on tiered data plans with 40% of this exceeding their bundled data.
