<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure> KOLKATA: Reliance Jio<\/a> Infocomm’s decision to charge users for voice calls to other phone networks to account for interconnect usage charges (IUC<\/a>) it pays rivals will help reverse the trend of falling average revenue per user (ARPU<\/a>), India Ratings<\/a> and CARE said.

But Jio’s move, they said, could discourage users from calling subscribers of other telcos, resulting in lower voice traffic, and in turn, restrict its actual
Ebitda<\/a> upside at 8-10%.

India Ratings & Research, a Fitch Group company, estimates Jio’s IUC recovery move will improve its ARPU -- a key performance metric -- by about Rs 9 (per month), although brokerage Kotak pegs sharper growth at Rs 15 per user per month.

From a peak of Rs 156 in the September quarter of FY18, Jio’s ARPU has shrunk steadily to Rs 122 over the past seven quarters. What’s more, Axis Capital has estimated it could dip 3% sequentially to Rs 118 in the September quarter, driven by additions of marginal JioPhone users generating modest monthly ARPU of Rs 99 and cash backs on digital recharges. But the Axis estimate had come in before Jio’s latest IUC move.

Small wonder, Care Ratings said “Jio’s move to recover IUC from customers indicates the telco’s aim to increase ARPU and now charge for voice call services, provided free earlier”.

Further, the ratings agency said Jio’s move would “provide room to incumbents” to also improve their respective ARPUs.

India Ratings though said Airtel and Vodafone Idea could see “lower incoming calls on their networks, which may impact their net IUC income” in future.

IUC is a charge paid to the telco on whose network a call terminates. It has been a bone of contention among private carriers and telecom sector regulator, Trai. Jio is now a net payer of IUC, while Airtel and Voda Idea are net IUC revenue earners, based on voice traffic flows.

Meanwhile, Airtel and Voda Idea took the social media war against Jio up a notch, asking users to move to their networks as they, unlike Jio, were not charging 6 paise a minute for outgoing calls to other telco networks.

Airtel came up with the #AbTohSahiChuno campaign as part of which it wrote, “For some, unlimited calls means something else. For us, unlimited calls have truly meant unlimited calls. Switch to Airtel now.”

Vodafone and Idea in their respective Twitter posts have taken digs at Jio too, where Idea wrote “Free calls on unlimited recharges. We truly mean it.”

But hashtags like #NoMoreIUC were also trending on Twitter, clearly in support of Jio’s latest move, while slamming the telecom regulator over its indecision over scrapping IUC.

“It’s time to unite over this IUC by signing a petition so that Trai can scrap it,” was among the posts on the micro-blogging site under the #NoMoreIUC counter-offensive.

加尔各答:依赖JioInfocomm决定收取用户语音通话和其他电话网络互连占使用费用(IUC)支付竞争对手将帮助扭转这一趋势的每用户平均收入下降(ARPU),印度的评级和护理。

但Jio的举动,他们说,可以阻止用户调用用户其他的电信公司,导致语音流量降低,反过来,限制其实际息税前利润在8 - 10%。

印度评级&研究惠誉集团公司,估计Jio IUC复苏的举措将提高ARPU——一个关键性能指标——Rs 9(每月),尽管经纪科塔克钉子尖锐每月每用户增长Rs 15。

从156年的峰值Rs 9月季度FY18, Jio ARPU稳步缩小的Rs 122过去7个季度。更重要的是,轴顺序资本估计可能下降3% Rs 118年第三季度,由于增加的边际JioPhone用户产生适度的月度ARPU Rs 99和现金支持数码充电。但轴估计以前进来Jio最新IUC移动。

难怪,保健评级说:“Jio此举恢复IUC客户表示电信的目标提高ARPU现在收费语音电话服务,免费提供早”。

此外,评级机构表示Jio此举将“提供现有的空间”也提高各自的arpu。

印度评级虽然说Airtel和沃达丰的想法可以看到“降低他们的网络来电,这可能会影响他们的净IUC收入”。

IUC是费用支付给电信的网络电话终止。这是一个争论的焦点在私营航空公司和电信行业监管机构,火车。Jio现在IUC的净支付,而Airtel和Voda想法是净IUC收入者收入,基于语音流量。

同时,Airtel和Voda想法把社交媒体对抗Jio切口,要求用户将他们的网络,与Jio不同,没有收取每分钟6 paise传出调用其他电信网络。

Airtel想出了# AbTohSahiChuno运动作为交易的一部分,保诚写道,“对一些人来说,无限的电话意味着别的东西。对我们来说,无限的调用有真正意味着无限的调用。切换到旅馆了。”

沃达丰(Vodafone)和想法在各自的推文已经挖掘Jio也在想法写了“无限的免费电话充电。我们真正的意思是。”

但是标签# NoMoreIUC也在Twitter上趋势,显然支持Jio的最新举措,而抨击电信监管机构对其在取消IUC优柔寡断。

“是时候团结在这个IUC签署请愿书,火车可以取消它,”在微博上的帖子下# NoMoreIUC反攻。
