Delay in implementation of zero call connect charges to hurt service affordability: Jio
Reliance Jio on Friday said that delaying the implementation of zero call connect charges beyond January 2020 will hurt affordability of telecom services in a sector where users have benefited from free voice calls. Speaking at Telecom Regulatory Authority of India’s open house on IUC issue, Mr. Nahata said Airtel had expanded 4G network and Vodafone Idea too is talking about expanding their 4G network. Mr. Nahata said that in case TRAI does not favour implementation of BAK regime from January 2020 then at least interconnect usage charges currently at 6 paise should be brought down. Meanwhile, Bharti Airtel’s Chief Regulatory Officer Ravi Gandhi rejected allegations of data fudging terming them as “misplaced” and said that people at times used the company’s SIM into second slot of mobile phone which generally supports 2G or 3G network.
