How BSNL is faring amid intense competition and in the absence of fourth generation (4G) services?
<\/strong>
BSNL mobile revenue remains stagnant while fixed line and enterprise businesses continue to grow. Overall market revenue stands at nearly 10.25%. Challenge is the absence of 4G services today. We are adding 100,000 fibre-to-the-home (FTTH) connections every month since last one year which is the fastest growth rate in the industry<\/a>. FTTH revenue increased to more than 90%, from about Rs 500 crore to 980 crore this year. Enterprise business revenue increased from Rs 3,200 crore to Rs 3,900 crore in the 2020-21 fiscal. We have a stable income from mobile services. Despite no 4G, we are able to save revenue. We are EBIDTA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) positive now.
Is salary disbursement to employees regularised?<\/strong>
<\/div><\/div>The salary disbursement is happening every month now based on the cash flow that we have.
Share an update on vendors' outstanding. How much have you paid so far?
<\/strong>
Two-third of the vendors' payments that stand at Rs 3,000 crore have been paid, and the outstanding is reduced to about Rs 1,000 crore for both domestic and multinational companies. The majority of vendors were paid last year.
What are the bottlenecks responsible for cash crunch?
<\/strong>
Today, BSNL is an operationally stable organisation, and on the right path. The challenge is loan repayment and its interest outgo which is ranging between Rs 200 crore to upto Rs 1,000 crore every month. Overall, we have Rs 30,000 crore loan exposure.
How are you moving ahead in terms of proof-of-concept (PoC) for 4G deployment?
<\/strong>
We are trying to overcome the 4G challenge and were able to demonstrate homegrown proof-of-concept. It is important to work and coordinate with partners so that we can achieve objectives. We'll be getting career equipment of 40W power by November 15th. Initial deadline was October 30 but we are expecting to extend it by a month. Once 4G service comes in, BSNL will be in a better position.
Do you believe the homegrown consortium is on track to enable BSNL to commercially launch 4G services?
<\/strong>
Things are moving in the right direction. As long as throughput and consumer experience is not impacting, we can move ahead to promote homegrown technology. We can launch 4G within 6 months after PoC. Spectrum is no challenge except the availability of equipment after PoC. By next fiscal, we'll be able to launch 4G. We have about 90,000 sites, and as a part of phase - I, we are initially deploying equipment at 50,000 sites.

Multinational vendors such as Nokia and Ericsson<\/a> did not participate. Why?<\/strong>
Multinationals have not participated in the process. In the Expression of Interest (EoI), we have asked those who have experience to register separately but none came forward and it appeared that integration with local core was a challenge for them.
What is 4G-related capex and opex you expect to spend?<\/strong>
Capital expenditure (capex) is expected to come in a range of Rs 14,000-15,000 crores while annual operating expense (opex) may stand between 4 to 5% of the capex.
You have recently sought to raise about Rs 38,000 crore. Why?
<\/strong>
We have asked for money in the form of equity to promote homegrown technology, and overcome financial constraints.
Share an update on your assets monetisation initiative?<\/strong>
Since last one year, BSNL was not able to monetise land assets. In January, last year, the voluntary retirement scheme (VRS) was concluded and in February, we started to work on a monetisation plan, but unfortunately, in March, Coronavirus outbroke. Now, we are restarting the process, and the demand for real estate is also now starting to grow since the market appetite was diminished earlier.
Have you identified any units to go with initially? What is their value?
<\/strong>
We are going ahead with six assets initiatially that included two from MTNL worth Rs 1,200-crore. This trenche will also test the market. The value of BSNL's total assets was pegged at Rs 70,000 crore. As and when the value of the real estate market picks up, our asset price would automatically increase. Individual assets are evaluated at the time of auction, and we have a proper process in place including in-house procedures, market valuation process, and we also appoint a transactional advisor to undertake monetisation exercise.

Multinational vendors such as Nokia and Ericsson<\/a> did not participate. Why?<\/strong>
Multinationals have not participated in the process. In the Expression of Interest (EoI), we have asked those who have experience to register separately but none came forward and it appeared that integration with local core was a challenge for them.
What is 4G-related capex and opex you expect to spend?<\/strong>
Capital expenditure (capex) is expected to come in a range of Rs 14,000-15,000 crores while annual operating expense (opex) may stand between 4 to 5% of the capex.
You have recently sought to raise about Rs 38,000 crore. Why?
<\/strong>
We have asked for money in the form of equity to promote homegrown technology, and overcome financial constraints.
Share an update on your assets monetisation initiative?<\/strong>
Since last one year, BSNL was not able to monetise land assets. In January, last year, the voluntary retirement scheme (VRS) was concluded and in February, we started to work on a monetisation plan, but unfortunately, in March, Coronavirus outbroke. Now, we are restarting the process, and the demand for real estate is also now starting to grow since the market appetite was diminished earlier.
Have you identified any units to go with initially? What is their value?
<\/strong>
We are going ahead with six assets initiatially that included two from MTNL worth Rs 1,200-crore. This trenche will also test the market. The value of BSNL's total assets was pegged at Rs 70,000 crore. As and when the value of the real estate market picks up, our asset price would automatically increase. Individual assets are evaluated at the time of auction, and we have a proper process in place including in-house procedures, market valuation process, and we also appoint a transactional advisor to undertake monetisation exercise.
