Deadline ends, but govt not to take action on telcos for delaying AGR dues
Live MintNew Delhi: The government will not take coercive action against mobile service providers that failed to meet the court-directed 23 January deadline to pay dues, after Vodafone Idea Ltd and Bharti Airtel Ltd sought more time. Meanwhile, Reliance Jio Infocomm Ltd, the mobile service provider least affected by the Supreme Court order that directed telcos to pay more than ₹1 trillion in back fees, has paid ₹195 crore to DoT to clear dues related to its licences as of 31 January, a person aware of the matter said on condition of anonymity. Vodafone Idea, the worst hit by the court’s order, Bharti Airtel and Tata Teleservices will await the hearing of their modification pleas filed in the Supreme Court earlier this week before making payments, they said. The Supreme Court on Tuesday agreed to hear the pleas filed by Vodafone Idea, Bharti Airtel, and Tata Teleservices next week, but did not comment on the status of the original payment deadline. Among non-telecom companies, DoT has sought ₹1.72 trillion from GAIL Ltd, ₹48,000 crore from Oil India Ltd, ₹22,168 crore from Power Grid Corporation of India Ltd, ₹15,019 crore from Gujarat Narmada Valley Fertilizers and Chemicals Ltd and ₹5,841 crore plus interest from Delhi Metro Rail Corp. Ltd, among others.
