对于现任公司来说，这是一个严峻的开局，AGR将于今年1月到期

IUC的发展将为Airtel和Vodafone Idea各带来5000 -1亿美元的微薄收益，而对新玩家Reliance Jio则产生相反的影响。关税上调的影响只有在几个季度后才能知道，而AGR的支付截止日期是1月。

新德里:在位者——印度电信和印度电信沃达丰的想法——将以暗淡的气氛进入新的一年，尽管受益于一些缓解措施，包括延长互联网络使用费(IUC)制度和频谱偿还作为AGR(调整后的总营收)他们头上的剑越来越大。

IUC的发展将为每个项目带来5000万至1亿美元的微薄收益Bharti Airtel而对新玩家Reliance的影响则相反Jio．关税上调的影响只有在几个季度后才能知道，而AGR的支付截止日期是1月。

IUC将在2020年1月之前降至零，而TRAI已将这一期限延长了一年。目前的IUC是一家电信公司向另一家公司支付的终止网络呼叫的费用，费率约为0.06卢比/分钟。

TRAI一直在逐步降低IUC费率。据瑞士信贷估计，在过去15年里，无线运营商的IUC终止率从2003年的0.30卢比/分钟下降到2017年的0.06卢比/分钟，下降了80%，原因是随着技术的改进，终止成本降低了。Reliance Jio与Bharti Airtel/ Vodafone Idea之间的网外语音流量不平衡正在下降，从绝对价值来看，IUC净收入也处于下降轨道，Jio获得了用户市场份额，但可能有助于Vodafone Idea，后者受到的打击最大。

电信专家马赫什•乌帕尔表示，IUC的延迟实施对陷入财务困境的电信公司不会有太大影响行业．当然，这种影响不会削弱AGR数字。推迟是有道理的，也只能有所帮助。

这个行业可能不会很快崩溃。然而，乌帕尔表示，对网络和新技术的投资不会有足够的激励措施。

然而，AGR问题仍然困扰着现任政府。

沃达丰Idea的处境岌岌可危。本月早些时候，沃达丰Idea董事长Kumar Mangalam Birla曾表示:“如果我们(从当局)没有得到任何东西，那么我认为沃达丰Idea的故事就结束了。他说:“这是一种错误的做法。把钱花在坏钱上没有意义……我们将关门……房间里最大的大象是AGR。”

最高法院于10月24日要求运营商支付非核心收入的AGR费用，除了频谱使用费和许可费。根据最高法院的裁决，Airtel和Vodafone Idea将面临820亿卢比的合计责任。

乌帕尔表示，在AGR方面，整个收入分享方式是一个主要问题。所有的征税都是以收入为基础的，这导致了所有的争议，我们需要采用不同的方法来计算税收。

对于现任公司来说，这是一个严峻的开局，AGR将于今年1月到期

最近，Trai也发起了一份谘询文件关税评估最低关税的需要。“虽然我们不认为这份咨询文件可能会带来任何潜在的监管变化，但我们相信投资者可能会将最低关税的设定(即使略低于当前价格)视为对行业的积极结果，因为这可能会确保更稳定的竞争。”然而，价格上限可能被投资者视为负面结果，并可能对电信公司的市盈率产生负面影响，”高盛(Goldman Sachs)分析师表示。

到目前为止，关税仍处于忍耐状态，这是由市场力量决定的。应所有电信公司的要求，电信监管机构首次决定调查数据服务的底价。整个过程可能需要几到六个月的时间才能有结果。

尽管最近的资费上调了40%，但电信公司预计每次使用的平均收入(ARPU)将从目前的80卢比增加到112卢比，但仍低于2016年Reliance Jio进入之前的水平。电信公司估计的改善可能会发生，也可能不会发生，因为ARPU的影响将取决于数据弹性，最终结果将在几个季度后公布，这可能会导致再次上调关税或维持相同水平的关税。

2016年9月，Reliance Jio的加入带来了低数据资费和免费语音通话的阶段。随后，数据消费达到了顶峰，其他运营商不得不支付相应的资费来留住用户。在印度，数据资费最低，约为7.7卢比/GB，预计在资费修订后将升至11卢比/GB。

在Reliance Jio进入后，电信行业出现了问题，该行业迎来了一个整合阶段。目前，三家私人公司和电信PSU BSNL/MTNL来自之前的12家公司。该行业的累计债务仍然高达7000亿卢比，超过了资本支出和日常运营的持续需求。

政府迄今为止拒绝了任何来自AGR会费的救助计划，这可能是该行业度过艰难时期的关键。

AGR
IUC
Jio
\"A By Mansi Taneja
<\/strong>
NEW DELHI: The incumbents \u2013 Airtel and Vodafone Idea<\/a> -- will enter the new year on a sombre note, despite being beneficiaries of few relief measures ranging from an extension in interconnect usage charges (IUC<\/a>) regime and spectrum repayment as the AGR<\/a> (adjusted gross revenues) sword is looming large on their heads.

The IUC development would bring in meagre benefits to the tune of $50-100 million for each Bharti Airtel<\/a> and Vodafone Idea while an opposite impact for new player Reliance Jio<\/a>. The impact of tariff hikes will be known only after few quarters, while the AGR payment deadline is January.

IUC was to come down to zero by January 2020, which has been extended by a year by TRAI. The current IUC, the charges paid by one telecom player to another for terminating call on their network, rate is around Rs 0.06\/min.

<\/div><\/div>TRAI has been progressively reducing IUC rates. Over the last 15 years, IUC termination rates for wireless operators have declined by 80% from Rs 0.30\/min in 2003 to Rs 0.06\/min in 2017 as the cost of termination has reduced with improvements in technologies, according to estimates by Credit Suisse. Off-net voice traffic imbalance between Reliance Jio and Bharti Airtel\/ Vodafone Idea is declining and in absolute terms, the net IUC receipts has also been on a declining trajectory with Jio gaining subscriber market share but might help Vodafone Idea, which is hit the most.

\"A<\/figure>
Mahesh Uppal, a telecom expert says, the delay in implementing IUC will not make much difference to financially distraught telecom industry<\/a>. Certainly, the impact will not dent the AGR numbers. The delay makes sense and can only help.

The industry may not collapse anytime soon. However, there won\u2019t be sufficient incentives to invest in network and new technologies, Uppal said.

However, the AGR issue continues to haunt the incumbents.

Vodafone Idea is in a precarious situation. Earlier this month, Vodafone Idea\u2019s chairman Kumar Mangalam Birla had said, \u201cIf we are not getting anything (from the authorities), then I think it is the end of story for Vodafone Idea. It does not make sense to put good money after bad\u2026 we will shut shop\u2026the big elephant in the room is AGR.\u201d

<\/div><\/div>The Supreme Court on October 24 had asked operators to pay their AGR dues their non-core revenues, apart from spectrum usage charges and licence fees. Airtel and Vodafone Idea are facing a combined liability of Rs 82,000 crore following the Supreme Court ruling.

Uppal says on AGR \u2013 the whole revenue sharing approach is a major problem. All levies are based on revenues, which has led to all the controversies and we need to move to a different approach for computing levies.

\"A<\/figure>
Recently, Trai also initiated a consultation paper on tariffs<\/a> to assess a need for floor tariffs. \u201cWhile we take no view on the likelihood of any potential regulatory changes coming off of this consultation paper, we believe investors are likely to view the setting up of floor tariffs, even if somewhat below current prices, as a positive outcome for the industry as this could potentially ensure more stable competition. However, a price ceiling could be seen as a negative outcome by investors and could adversely impact telco multiples,\u201d analysts at Goldman Sachs said.

Till now, the tariffs are under forbearance \u2013 that is decided by the market forces. For the first time, the telecom regulator has decided to look into floor prices for data services after request from all telecom players. The whole process might take few to six months before any outcome.

Though, the recent tariff hikes of upto 40%, telecom players expect an increase in average revenue per use (ARPU) to Rs 112 from current Rs 80, it will still be lower than what they achieved in 2016 before the entry of Reliance Jio. The improvement which telecom players are estimating might or might not happen as the ARPU impact will depend on data elasticity and the final outcome will be known few quarters away, which might build a case for another tariff hike or continuation of same levels of tariffs.

Reliance Jio\u2019s entry in September 2016 brought in a phase of low data tariffs with free voice calls. Data consumption hit the roof, subsequently, and the rest of the operators had to match the tariffs to retain their users. In India, data tariffs are lowest at around Rs 7.7\/GB, and expected to go up to Rs 11\/GB after the tariff revision.

The things for the telecom industry went awry after the entry of Reliance Jio and the industry ushered in a phase of consolidation. Currently, three private players run the show along with a telecom PSU BSNL\/MTNL from earlier 12 players. The cumulative debt of the industry remains high at Rs 7 lakh crore, over and above constant requirements of capital expenditure and day to day operations.

The government, has so far refused any bailout plan from the AGR dues, which might be critical for the industry to sail through the tough times.
