CG Net Expands Around Kathmandu | New Locations Update

CG Net has expanded around Kathmandu with eyes on reaching beyond the capital soon. But the speed war it inspired has come around on its neck, and now the ISP has offered a mightily affordable 50 Mbps plan for just Rs.649 a month. This could keep the fresh ISP in the game as it requires a strong customer base to keep the momentum against the major ISPs.

CG Net is the first ISP in Nepal to break the 100 Mbps mark offering its first internet plan at a low cost. The company debuted in the ISP market in Nepal with the remarkable 120 Mbps plan for just Rs. 999 which triggered a ferocious internet speed war.

In response, major ISPs have launched their premium packagers with next-gen WiFi technologies. As a result of this number competition, we have seen the speed of fiber broadband skyrocket from 3 digits to a possible 1 Gbps globe trotter at the expense of Classic Tech. But as the existing ISPs ride on their robust marketing, CG Net is still relying on word-of-mouth publicity for its low-cost packages. However, to stay competitive, CG Net has offered a “Super Sasto” package of a 50 Mbps plan for just Rs.649 per month.

50 Mbps Plan a Life-Saver

The Super Sasto package is in line with the ISP’s high-speed, low-cost offering. The 120 Mbps plan is taking the heat from the competing ISPs’ own high-speed offerings. But the 50 Mbps plan could keep it in the game as more consumers are seeking a moderate internet plan which should offer a high-speed package at a low cost.

The package is available for 1/3/6/13 months renewals. For these plans, a subscriber will cost Rs.649/1,947/3,894/7788 respectively.

Since its mindboggling launch on June 1, CG Net fiber has aggressively widened its FTTH service across the valley. In the beginning, CG Net was available in only Jawalakhel, Jhamsikhel, and Harihar Bhawan. Then, the company expanded it to more areas.

CG Net is still expanding around Kathmandu. The company is laying infrastructures to expand beyond the capital which could happen in the coming months.
