Lanka Bell was formed in 1997 as the single largest BOI Company in Sri Lanka with an investment of over US$150 Million. It was subsequently acquired by the privately held diversified conglomerate Milford Holdings (Private) Limited in 2005.

Due to its financial issues to maintain the service, Lanka Bell ceased its operations in 2024, gradually transferring their clients to other networks such as SLTMobitel.
