NEW DELHI: Hyundai<\/a> Motor India and Wipro<\/a> Limited are in talks with the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) to set up testing centres as the government finalises plans for mandatory local testing of telecom equipment by the end of this financial year. 新德里消息:现代电动机印度和Wipro有限公司是与电信部(点)建立测试中心政府敲定计划时强制电信设备的本地测试本财政年度的结束。
The South Korean automaker and the Indian information technology services firm have entered into initial discussions with the engineering wing of the DoT and have shown interest in setting up laboratories in India for testing telecom equipment, officials told ET.
“New test labs are being set up. Hyundai’s representatives have come to us and the company wants to establish a telecom lab in India,” said Shakeel Ahmad, senior deputy director general, Telecommunication Engineering Centre.
TEC is a Delhi-based nodal agency of the DoT which establishes standards and specifications for telecom products, services and networks.
Ahmad said that Hyundai’s representatives discussed the feasibility and scope of telecom-centric testing in India with the officials of the government’s telecom engineering division. The Seoul headquartered company already operates a testing centre for motor vehicles in India, he said, and wants to expand into telecommunications.
“Wipro is also interested in setting up a security lab for telecom sector,” Ahmad said.
ET’s queries to Hyundai and Wipro did not elicit any response till late evening on Friday.
Under new rules, the Narendra Modi-led government has mandated that multinational gear vendors such as Finnish Nokia<\/a>, Swedish Ericsson<\/a>, and Chinese Huawei<\/a> and ZTE get their equipment locally tested and certified from March 31, 2019.
At present, India has 20 designated test laboratories, most of which have recently been accredited to conduct desired checks for the safety requirement of telecom equipment. These labs are predominantly spread across Delhi and its suburbs of Gurgaon, Noida and Sahibabad.
The government’s focus on local gear testing, according to Ahmad, has created much business interest among private sector entities to extend their capabilities into the entirely new domain.
Lobby group Cellular Operators Association of India (COAI) – which represents Bharti Airtel<\/a>, Reliance Jio Infocomm<\/a>, Vodafone<\/a> India and Idea Cellular – wrote a letter to DoT secretary on May 29 advocating setting up of full-fledged test labs before implementing new rules.
Ahmad said that TEC has also started the process to authorise more than 15 centres, for which it has already received applications from private sector laboratories.
Telecom sector players, predominantly gear makers, have been opposing the move towards mandatory local testing, saying it would cost them an estimated Rs 1,500 crore annually in assessment charges, and may delay network deployment and expansion.
TEC has, however, added two components to the pricing structure – application fee for evaluation and a standard test tariff. Private designated labs would charge as per their tariff and that the government would have no control over it, said Ahmad.
The amended Indian Telegraph Rules, 2017, require telecom equipment to undergo testing and certification prior to sale or import for use in India. The tests, according to the notification, would be carried out for conformance to essential requirements by Indian accredited labs designated by TEC and based upon their test reports, a certificate shall be issued by the centre.

韩国汽车制造商和印度信息技术服务公司已经进入初步讨论工程的兴趣点和显示设置测试实验室在印度的电信设备,官员告诉等。
“新测试实验室已经建立。现代的代表来我们公司想要在印度建立一个电信实验室,”资深副局长沙克尔·艾哈迈德·表示,电信工程中心。
艾哈迈德说,现代的代表讨论了可行性和telecom-centric测试的范围与政府的官员在印度的电信工程部门。首尔总部公司已经经营机动车辆检测中心在印度,他说,想要进军电信。
“Wipro也有兴趣建立一个安全实验室对电信行业,”艾哈迈德说。
等现代和Wipro的查询没有引起任何反应,直到周五晚上。
在新规则下,纳兰德拉Modi-led政府规定,跨国芬兰等设备供应商诺基亚,瑞典爱立信,中国华为和中兴通讯获得本地设备测试和认证从3月31日,2019年。
目前印度有20指定测试实验室,其中大部分最近认证进行检查的电信设备的安全要求。这些实验室主要是分布在德里和古尔加翁的郊区,诺伊达和Sahibabad。
当地政府的关注齿轮测试,根据艾哈迈德,规范了业务兴趣私营实体来扩展他们的能力进入全新的领域。
游说团体印度手机运营商协会(COAI)——代表Bharti Airtel,依赖Jio Infocomm,沃达丰(Vodafone)印度和想法细胞——写了一封信给点部长5月29日之前倡导建立成熟的测试实验室实施新规则。
艾哈迈德说,侦探也开始流程授权超过15个中心,它已经收到了来自私营部门的实验室应用。
电信业的球员,主要设备制造商,一直反对走向强制本地测试,称这将使他们在评估费用,每年估计有1500卢比,可能延迟网络部署和扩张。
TEC,然而,两个组件添加到定价结构,应用费用评价和标准测试关税。私人指定实验室将负责根据关税和政府将无法控制它,艾哈迈德说。
2017年印度电报修改规则,要求电信设备进行测试和认证之前在印度销售或进口使用。测试,根据通知,将对符合基本要求印度认可实验室指定的TEC和基于他们的测试报告,中心颁发的证书。
