Jio is the largest mobile network operator in India and the third largest in the world, with more than 467.2 million subscribers as of 2021.

"Metrics show a disruption to leading India Internet provider Reliance Jio (AS55836) affecting multiple regions, corroborating user reports of widespread outages," outage tracker NetBlocks said, pointing to issues in Punjab, Odisha, Karnataka, Kerala, Telangana, Delhi, Madya Pradesh, Gujarat, Maharashtra, Haryana, West Bengal, Tamil Nadu, and elsewhere.

Cloudflare Radar said: "Reliance Jio (AS55836) faced a nationwide disruption, starting at 07:45 UTC, with traffic dropping as much as 53 percent compared to the previous week. Recovery began at 08:30 UTC.

"Jio's BGP announcement volume first spiked at 07:45 UTC, then even higher at 08:15 UTC... BGP announcement spikes could indicate routing changes or a problem in Reliance Jio’s network that required new routes to be propagated."

Reliance Jio has yet to comment on the outage.
