About CG Net
Chaudhary Group’s internet subsidiary CG Net started its service on June 1, 2021, with an awe-inspiring internet package for its time. The company launched a 120 Mbps residential package for Rs 999 with the theme “speed that matters”. One year on, the company has made commendable strides. The company has started service outside of Kathmandu and also launched new internet packages from 150 Mbps to 350 Mbps for residential users and 30 Mbps to 300 Mbps plans for businesses.
CG Net internet plan suits the internet requirement of family members for working from home, multimedia streaming, studying from home, online meetings, etc. As for payment, you can pay for your CG Net services via eSewa, CG Pay, and the CG Net app.
The billion-dollar self-made business tycoon Binod Chaudhary wanted to start telecom service via CG Telecom but despite huge ambition and attempts, the conglomerate has so far failed to obtain a unified license. This compelled the company to turn to the ISP venture. And the company didn’t disappoint. CG Net’s first internet plan was the headliner for weeks a year ago.
Now to improve its services, the company has launched internet packages at affordable costs. In this post, we have compiled the list of CG Net internet packages and explored all necessary details including the coverage and IPTV service. Let’s first begin with the CG Net IPTV service.
