PLDT has posted record growth for its consumer wireless business from January to September 2020, attributing the boost in revenue to strong user demand and increased market share.

Smart and TNT, which comprise PLDT’s consumer wireless business, recorded a 15-percent year-on-year increase in revenues for the first three quarters, equivalent to ₱60.8 billion.

According to Smart chief executive officer Alfredo S. Panlilio, PLDT has consistently gained wireless market share for the last six quarters, and this made them the leading company in terms of mobile data traffic and users.
