According to government officials, the Department of Telecommunications<\/a> (DoT<\/a>) will need to inform the SC by April 7 the status of adjusted gross revenue (AGR<\/a>) paid as on March 31. “We will file a status report<\/a> in the SC shortly,” one of the officials said.
A three-judge bench of the Supreme Court<\/a> had ruled on September 1 that the telecom operators must pay 10% of the total AGR dues as demanded by DoT<\/a> by March 31, 2021 and the remainder in equal instalments every financial year up to March 31, 2031.
Vodafone Idea<\/a> (Vi), Airtel<\/a> and Tata Tele have said that they have already paid more than 10% of their total AGR dues and don’t need to pay anything by March 31, 2021.
However, DoT’s interpretation is that the court meant 10% of the remaining AGR dues when it asked the operators to pay that much by end of FY21 as it was aware of the payments they already made.
Airtel, Vi and Tata Tele have so far paid over Rs 18,000 crore, Rs 7,854 crore and Rs 4,197 crore, respectively, in late 2019 and early 2020.

Airtel believes it doesn’t need to pay any instalments for four years, while Vi said it needs to pay the next instalment only by March 2022.
The three telcos – from whom DoT has demanded a total of Rs 1.19 lakh crore in AGR dues – did not respond to ET’s queries as of press time Wednesday.
The telcos have, in fact, filed separate petitions in the top court, pointing out errors in DoT’s calculation of the AGR dues, and a senior executive of one of the firms said they will await the apex court’s instructions after hearing their pleas before making any further payments.
“If the top court accepts our petition, it will be a whole different AGR number altogether,” the executive said.
In the beginning of this year, Vi has appealed to the court to modify or clarify its order to allow the government to consider the telco’s submissions on the calculation errors and rectify them accordingly. Vi has to pay Rs 58,400 crore in AGR dues, of which it has paid Rs 7,854 crore. The telco had self-assessed its dues at Rs 21,533 crore, which the Supreme Court had rejected.
Airtel has sought modification, clarification or recall of “mistaken orders” that allowed the government to demand Rs 43,980 crore as AGR dues against the telco’s calculation of Rs 13,004 crore.
Both telcos highlighted the manifold increase in AGR dues as a result of “arithmetical errors”.
Tata Tele told the court that the demands of the DoT exceeded its deemed revenue and added up to more than the book balance. The telco has AGR dues of Rs 16,798 crore.

The telcos have, in fact, filed separate petitions in the top court, pointing out errors in DoT’s calculation of the AGR dues, and a senior executive of one of the firms said they will await the apex court’s instructions after hearing their pleas before making any further payments.
“If the top court accepts our petition, it will be a whole different AGR number altogether,” the executive said.
In the beginning of this year, Vi has appealed to the court to modify or clarify its order to allow the government to consider the telco’s submissions on the calculation errors and rectify them accordingly. Vi has to pay Rs 58,400 crore in AGR dues, of which it has paid Rs 7,854 crore. The telco had self-assessed its dues at Rs 21,533 crore, which the Supreme Court had rejected.
Airtel has sought modification, clarification or recall of “mistaken orders” that allowed the government to demand Rs 43,980 crore as AGR dues against the telco’s calculation of Rs 13,004 crore.
Both telcos highlighted the manifold increase in AGR dues as a result of “arithmetical errors”.
Tata Tele told the court that the demands of the DoT exceeded its deemed revenue and added up to more than the book balance. The telco has AGR dues of Rs 16,798 crore.

电信部门正准备文件状态报告在最高法院通知,沃达丰的想法,Bharti附近的旅馆和塔塔电信业务对他们没有支付任何金额AGR费超出最初支付的30055卢比。
据政府官员电信部(点)需要通知4月7日的SC的状态调整收入总额(AGR3月31日)支付。“我们将文件状态报告在SC不久,”一位官员说。
一个由三名法官组成的长椅上最高法院9月1日裁定了电信运营商必须支付总额的10% AGR费所要求的吗点由2021年3月31日和其余各分期付款每财政年度到3月31日,2031年。
沃达丰的想法(Vi),附近的旅馆和塔塔电视表示,他们已经付了10%以上的总AGR费,不需要支付任何由3月31日,2021年。
然而,点的解释是,法院就意味着10%的剩余AGR会费时要求运营商支付那么多年底FY21是意识到他们已经支付了。
Airtel Vi和塔塔Tele迄今为止支付超过18000卢比,7854卢比,4197卢比,分别在2019年底和2020年初。
Airtel认为它不需要支付任何分期付款四年,而六世表示,它只需要支付第二期2022年3月。
谁点的三个电信公司——要求共计1.19十万的卢比AGR费——没有回应等周三按时间查询。
电信公司,事实上,最高法院提起单独的请愿书,指出错误点的AGR费计算,和公司之一的一位高管表示,他们将等待法院的指示做任何进一步的付款之前听完他们的请求。
“如果最高法院接受我们的请愿书,这将是一个完全不同的AGR数量,”这位高管表示。
在今年年初,Vi呼吁法院修改或澄清其以允许政府考虑电信的提交相应计算错误和纠正他们。六世在AGR会费支付58400卢比,它已经支付了7854卢比。电信已经自我评价其会费21533卢比,最高法院拒绝了。
Airtel寻求修改、澄清或召回“错误的订单”,允许政府要求43980卢比AGR费对电信13004卢比的计算。
增加两个电信公司强调了歧管AGR费由于“算术错误”。
塔塔Tele告诉法庭,点的需求超过了其认为收入和加起来比账面余额。电信的AGR会费16798卢比。
<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>The telecom department is gearing up to file a status report<\/a> in the Supreme Court<\/a>, informing that Vodafone Idea<\/a>, Bharti Airtel<\/a> and Tata Teleservices<\/a> have not paid any amount towards their AGR<\/a> dues beyond the Rs 30,055 crore initially paid.
According to government officials, the Department of Telecommunications<\/a> (DoT<\/a>) will need to inform the SC by April 7 the status of adjusted gross revenue (AGR<\/a>) paid as on March 31. “We will file a status report<\/a> in the SC shortly,” one of the officials said.
A three-judge bench of the Supreme Court<\/a> had ruled on September 1 that the telecom operators must pay 10% of the total AGR dues as demanded by DoT<\/a> by March 31, 2021 and the remainder in equal instalments every financial year up to March 31, 2031.
Vodafone Idea<\/a> (Vi), Airtel<\/a> and Tata Tele have said that they have already paid more than 10% of their total AGR dues and don’t need to pay anything by March 31, 2021.
However, DoT’s interpretation is that the court meant 10% of the remaining AGR dues when it asked the operators to pay that much by end of FY21 as it was aware of the payments they already made.
Airtel, Vi and Tata Tele have so far paid over Rs 18,000 crore, Rs 7,854 crore and Rs 4,197 crore, respectively, in late 2019 and early 2020.

Both telcos highlighted the manifold increase in AGR dues as a result of “arithmetical errors”.
Tata Tele told the court that the demands of the DoT exceeded its deemed revenue and added up to more than the book balance. The telco has AGR dues of Rs 16,798 crore.

Airtel believes it doesn’t need to pay any instalments for four years, while Vi said it needs to pay the next instalment only by March 2022.
The three telcos – from whom DoT has demanded a total of Rs 1.19 lakh crore in AGR dues – did not respond to ET’s queries as of press time Wednesday.
The telcos have, in fact, filed separate petitions in the top court, pointing out errors in DoT’s calculation of the AGR dues, and a senior executive of one of the firms said they will await the apex court’s instructions after hearing their pleas before making any further payments.
“If the top court accepts our petition, it will be a whole different AGR number altogether,” the executive said.
In the beginning of this year, Vi has appealed to the court to modify or clarify its order to allow the government to consider the telco’s submissions on the calculation errors and rectify them accordingly. Vi has to pay Rs 58,400 crore in AGR dues, of which it has paid Rs 7,854 crore. The telco had self-assessed its dues at Rs 21,533 crore, which the Supreme Court had rejected.
Airtel has sought modification, clarification or recall of “mistaken orders” that allowed the government to demand Rs 43,980 crore as AGR dues against the telco’s calculation of Rs 13,004 crore.
Both telcos highlighted the manifold increase in AGR dues as a result of “arithmetical errors”.
Tata Tele told the court that the demands of the DoT exceeded its deemed revenue and added up to more than the book balance. The telco has AGR dues of Rs 16,798 crore.
