I'm sure it wouldn't be accurate too.
You need to take in consideration of many factors such as:
1) Does the figure also include business premise accounts which result in overlapped individuals who registered for both home and their own business? It only mentioned premises passed and no. of subscribers.
The figures can get really bloated if say a plaza complex which is only half occupied with 100 tenants. So TM will claim 100 premise passed with that building alone but out of the 50 tenants, only 5 subscribes the internet?
2) The figure comes from the no. of login accounts created or Unifi email accounts available which whether staff/test accounts were also added in(they're not telling)
3) If you want to compare household penetration rate then it'll not be accurate because the possibility of IT illiterate family members exists as well. Can business/offices premise considered household?
The fact is the adoption figure for consumer can even be much smaller.
At least it would be more accurate than your calculation.
We are talking about the 517k who actually subscribed. Majority of this are households subscribers. You can't take this figure and divided by the no.of population to derive the %. At least divided by the no. of households please.
And for the 1.4m premises, it's actually more accurate to say that this is 1.4m ports available for subscription. That's why you get cases where certain area can't subscribe to Unifi because port is full.
And don't get me started that you should also included Maxis FTTH subscribers since they used TM HSBB network as well
