Jio Platforms is set to file what could be India's largest-ever IPO. But the story goes far beyond the listing. Senior telecom consultant Kalyan Parbat joins host Anirban Chowdhury to break down what the DRHP really signals.

But questions remain. Competition pressure, privacy concerns around AI on mobile networks, net neutrality risks from network slicing. This is a deep dive into what Jio's public market debut means for India's digital future.
