Today, while doing a speedtest while inserting my newly ported Vi sim onto my dad's Moto Edge 40 Neo I noticed that netmonster kept saying 900 MHz, and then I saw
Bandwidth of 10+10+10+50MHz

While the symbol in notification bar says 5G

If I’m not wrong, then this means Vi has started 5G CA at least in Mumbai Circle
Since they have 900Mhz spectrum

 
i did restart the phone to make sure it wasn't showing old data but it kept showing that
 
Kyle, you're right. Even I have noticed it during my Vi 5G testing. It shows 1800 band and the 5G speeds hover around 140 Mbps (I can confirm this because it happens only when I am far away from the tower and 3500 band can't reach the place). To make sure I even test again on 4g only mode and the same 1800 band gives 40-50 Mbps speed. So yes they're doing some sort of 5G NSA on these bands as well. I agree netmonster can have these bugs but the speed difference tells that it's real. I tested this on my Motorola Edge 20 Pro, Edge 20 & My Friend's Edge 40 all gave the same results.
