Mobile-tariffs-set-to-rise-on-trai-recommendations

In a meeting with consumer groups today, TRAI Chairman Rahul Khullar said, "It is not 1 paisa or 2 paise (increase) ... but also not 16 paise or 25 paise as projected by operators."

The minimum price of airwaves proposed by TRAI for pan-Indian operations is over Rs 18,000 crore, around 10 times more than the amount paid by old operators.

It has also recommended to fix double of this amount as minimum price for the airwaves that existing telecom operators use to provide wireless services at the time of renewal of their licences.

Telecom operators have said that new prices recommended by TRAI will lead to increase in existing tariff by up to 100 per cent.
