Huawei India has stockpiled enough inventory to keep its 4G equipment supplies to local mobile phone companies going around a year, people familiar with the matter said, adding the US ban though will slow down business for the Chinese company. “India business may not see any impact as stockpiling was already done for telcos here. At the global level, there is a strategy in place to avoid any impact on the supply chain for telecom equipment,” one of the people said. “All Huawei account directors are in touch with telco partners.”
Both Voda Idea and Airtel use Huawei’s 4G gear in several circles, besides those from Sweden’s Ericsson, Finland’s Nokia and China’s ZTE. Mukesh Ambani-led Reliance Jio uses 4G equipment from Samsung. In fact, Huawei had recently bagged a contract from Vodafone Idea to provide 4G gear for network modernisation and expansion in seven circles. It is currently competing for VIL’s core and transport network contracts.
