New Delhi: The Telecom Ministry is likely to auction one slot of
broadband wireless access (BWA) licence spectrum on pan-India basis
after getting back airwaves from the state-run PSU BSNL.
The Department of Telecom (DoT) has given in-principle approval to the proposal of BSNL to surrender its BWA licence in nine circles, out of the total 22 service areas for which the telecom operator had paid over Rs 8,500 crore last year.
"After taking BWA spectrum from the BSNL, the government will have airwaves on pan-India basis as the department is already having the spectrum in several circles. So, the government will auction it and whatever the amount they will get, BSNL is likely to get back around 80 to 90 per cent of what it had paid last year, about Rs 6,700 crore," sources in the know said.
