PTCL Subsidiary PTML Secures 180 MHz Spectrum in Pakistan’s 5G Auction

Pak Telecom Mobile Limited (PTML), the PTCL subsidiary known for its Ufone 4G and Onic brands, has officially secured 180 MHz of spectrum in Pakistan’s landmark 5G auction. In a disclosure to the Pakistan Stock Exchange, PTCL confirmed the acquisition includes 60 MHz in the 2600 MHz band and 120 MHz in the 3500 MHz band, totaling a $156.75 million investment.

This move is particularly significant as PTML prepares to integrate the spectrum across its network, which will eventually support Telenor Pakistan customers following their planned merger. With the assignment stage finalized on March 12, PTML is now positioned to begin deploying next-generation connectivity designed to power high-speed digital services and industrial AI applications across the country.
