议会小组:尽早将4G频谱提供给BSNL和MTNL
MTNL和BSNL已经提交了频谱分配提案，政府支持在他们运营的电信圈推出4G服务。

BSNL视人力资源转型为转折点
在2022年至2032年的10年期间，平均每年将有近2000名员工退休，这使该公司成为一个更专注于与私营行业企业——Reliance Jio、Bharti Airtel和Vodafone Idea——竞争的组织。

新德里:信息技术常务委员会要求政府拨款4 g频谱国有电信公司BSNL而且MTNL尽早帮助他们在市场上竞争和生存。“委员会认为，如果不尽快提供4G服务，BSNL和MTNL都将失去数据市场。为了在电信市场上竞争和生存，委员会认为4G频谱应该尽早给他们。”该委员会由人民党议员担任主席Anurag Singh Thakur在今天提交议会的报告中说。
MTNL和BSNL已经提交了频谱分配提案，政府支持在他们运营的电信圈推出4G服务。
两家国营公司都要求在他们经营的服务区的2100兆赫频段安装5兆赫的无线电波，该提案正在电信部的审议中。
“委员会获悉，部长阁下(Manoj Sinha)在众议院宣布，政府将很快就此事做出最终决定，该部门正在积极考虑提供4G频谱。”
预计将4G频谱分配给BSNL和MTNL，而不是股权注入，将遏制它们在无线和宽带领域的负增长。
该小组指出，MTNL债务负担沉重。
截至2017年12月，MTNL的未偿还债务为16870.40亿卢比，而BSNL的未偿还债务为900亿卢比。
2018-19年度，印度电信公司的预计收入和支出分别为2850亿卢比和3585亿卢比。
事务委员会要求政府尽早考虑公营机构提交的自愿退休计划，以帮助他们改善现金流。
对MTNL而言，该公司76%以上的收入来自员工成本，而私营部门的这一比例为4%至6%。

NEW DELHI: The Standing Committee of Information Technology has asked government to allocate 4G spectrum<\/a> to state-run telecom firm BSNL<\/a> and MTNL<\/a> at the earliest to help them compete and survive in the market.\"The Committee is of the view that both BSNL and MTNL will lose the data market, if they are not given 4G services soon. To compete and survive in the telecom market, the Committee feels that 4G spectrum should be given to them at the earliest,\" the committee, chaired by BJP MP Anurag Singh Thakur<\/a>, said in its report tabled in Parliament today.
MTNL and BSNL have submitted proposals for allotment of spectrum with government support for launching 4G services in the telecom circles where they operate.
<\/div><\/div>BSNL operates in 20 telecom circles of the country while MTNL has operations in remaining 2 telecom service area- Delhi and Mumbai.
Both the state-run firms have requested for 5 Mhz block of radiowaves in 2100 Mhz band in the service area where they operate and the proposal is under consideration of the Department of Telecom.
\"The Committee have been informed that Hon'ble Minister (Manoj Sinha<\/a>) had declared on the floor of the House that government is shortly going to take a final decision in the matter and the department is actively considering giving 4G spectrum,\" the report said.
It is also expected that allotment of 4G spectrum to BSNL and MTNL against equity infusion will contain their negative growth in the wireless and broadband segments.
The panel noted MTNL is under severe debt burden.
As on December 2017, the outstanding debt of MTNL is Rs 16,870.40 crore and for BSNL, the figure is Rs 9,000 crore.
For the year 2018-19, the projected revenue and expenditure of BSNL is Rs 28500 crore and Rs 35850 crore, respectively.
The panel asked government to consider voluntary retirement scheme submitted by the PSUs at the earliest to help them improve their cash flows.
For MTNL, the company incurs more than 76 per cent of the revenue on staff cost as opposed to 4 to 6 per cent by private sector.

<\/div><\/div>\"...the Committee is of the view that revival of MTNL will involve significant reduction in staff cost. Granting of VRS to 5312 employees, i.e., 20 per cent of the staff retiring in next 10 years is expected to reduce staff cost by 20 per cent thus improving negative cash flow,\" the panel said.
