\n
\nAdditional Solicitor General (ASG) P S Narasimha made the submission before a bench of Chief Justice G Rohini and Justice Jayant Nath which listed the pleas of cellular operators challenging the call drop regulations for further hearing on January 6.
\n
\nThe ASG, however, made it clear that the regulations would come into force from January 1 as was decided.
\n
\nThe operators have sought quashing of TRAI's October 16 ruling mandating service providers to pay subscribers Re 1 per call drop experienced on their network, subject to a cap of three a day.
\n
Besides Cellular Operators Association of India<\/a> (COAI<\/a>), the Association of Unified Telecom Service Providers of India (AUSPI) and 21 telecom operators, including Vodafone, Bharti Airtel<\/a> and Reliance have said that the decision has been taken knowing fully well that laws of physics make it impossible to provide a hundred per cent call drop-free network.
\n
Senior advocate Harish Salve<\/a>, appearing for the cellular operators, told the court that the penalty was being levied without considering the infrastructure problems faced by the companies.
\n
He said if the companies did not comply with the regulations from January 1, 2016, then they feared their licence<\/a>s might be cancelled for breach of licence condition.
\n
\nHe said TRAI was \"playing to the galleries\" by bringing out the regulations and was not concerned that the telecom companies have inadequate spectrum, not enough towers and the towers they have, are operated at one-tenth their levels to reduce radiation.
\n
\nAll these factors and network congestion lead to call drops, he said.
\n
\n
\n
\nSalve also said that after an auction, each company is allocated a new set of frequencies and hence, it has to recalibrate its entire network.
\n
\nHe submitted if the penalty is levied, the companies will end up paying around Rs 1000 crore to Rs 1500 crore and not Rs 800 crore as TRAI was saying.
\n
\nOpposing grant of any interim order, the ASG told the court that there would be no immediate consequence of the regulations as the telecom companies will have to credit the compensation amount to consumers at the end of the month.
\n
\nHe said that the regulations were notified on October 16 and they were framed after consulting all stakeholders, including the cellular operators, and thus, there was no need for any interim order.
\n
\nHe said the penalty comes out to be less than one per cent of adjusted gross revenue (AGR) of these telecom companies.
\n
\nIn their plea, the operators have said the subject matter is already covered by a prior and existing quality of service regulation, 2009 dated March 20, 2009, and hence, this is an occupied field.
\n
\nThey have also said there is no clause dealing with compensation even in the licence.
\n
\n\"On the contrary, as per the licence agreement, the operators are not required to cover the entire service area. The operators are mandated to roll out their network so as to cover 90 per cent service area in metro...There is no requirement of mandatory coverage in the rural area,\" their plea has said.\n\n<\/body>","next_sibling":[{"msid":50280888,"title":"India's public education system is critial, says Azim Premji","entity_type":"ARTICLE","link":"\/news\/indias-public-education-system-is-critial-says-azim-premji\/50280888","category_name":null,"category_name_seo":"telecomnews"}],"related_content":[],"msid":50280952,"entity_type":"ARTICLE","title":"Call drops: TRAI says no coercive steps against telecom companies till January 6","synopsis":"Harish Salve, appearing for the cellular operators, said the penalty was being levied without considering the infrastructure problems faced by the companies.","titleseo":"telecomnews\/call-drops-trai-says-no-coercive-steps-against-telecom-companies-till-january-6","status":"ACTIVE","authors":[],"Alttitle":{"minfo":""},"artag":"PTI","artdate":"2015-12-22 13:57:13","lastupd":"2015-12-22 13:58:27","breadcrumbTags":["Harish Salve","Telecom","TRAI","policy","Bharti Airtel","licence","COAI","Cellular Operators Association of India"],"secinfo":{"seolocation":"telecomnews\/call-drops-trai-says-no-coercive-steps-against-telecom-companies-till-january-6"}}" data-authors="[" "]" data-category-name="" data-category_id="" data-date="2015-12-22" data-index="article_1">
