NEW DELHI: The government has deferred the merger of state-run telecom operators Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited<\/a> (BSNL<\/a>) and Mahanagar Telephone Nigam Limited<\/a> (MTNL<\/a>) due to financial reasons, IT and telecom minister Ravi Shankar Prasad<\/a> said.

“However, close cooperation and service integration between
BSNL<\/a> and MTNL<\/a> has been undertaken,\" said Prasad in a written reply in the Lok Sabha on Wednesday.

This is despite the earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization (Ebitda) of the two telcos turning positive in the first six months of the current financial year.

The government in 2019 had come up with a four-step revival process for the two ailing telcos worth Rs 69,000 crore, and to help them overcome their long salary dues and meet cash flow requirements.

As a part of the revival plan, the government introduced the Voluntary Retirement Scheme (VRS) under which any employee above the age of 53 and a half, who opts for the VRS, will be given 125% remuneration of the salary, pension, and gratuity till the age of 60.

Approximately 78,300 employees opted for the VRS, and the BSNL is said to have saved about 50% of the company’s total staff cost of Rs 14,500 crore. MTNL's 14,378 employees, accounting for 76 percent of the total workforce, opted for the VRS.

It is worth remembering that MTNL has a total debt of Rs 20,000 crore and an Ebitda of Rs 276 crore in the first half of this fiscal versus an operating loss of Rs 549 crore year-on-year.
