BSNL-MTNL-to-make-big-gains-from-intra-circle-roaming-pacts

NEW DELHI: The absence of a pan-India 3G licence winner may spell good news for state-owned telcos BSNL and MTNL as private operators will have to approach them for intra-circle roaming agreements in regions where they themselves failed to win 3G airwaves. Executives of several telcos said they were exploring an alliance with BSNL that has 3G airwaves in all circles as it would be a single step solution as against stitching alliances with several firms across the country. MTNL has 3G airwaves for Delhi and Mumbai.

“This could open a new revenue stream for us,” Kuldeep Goyal, chairman and managing director of BSNL told ET. He did not reveal the names of firms that have so far sought out intra-circle deals with BSNL but said the telco was open to sharing its passive infrastructure (excluding spectrum) that it had built for 3G services with private operators.
