NEW DELHI: Telecom operators<\/a>' representative body, COAI<\/a>, said that lower reserve prices for spectrum<\/a> would have provided additional resources for network expansion to the telcos in the country.
\"High reserve prices in past auctions have resulted in large amounts of spectrum<\/a> remaining unsold. We hope the Govt. will take additional measures to boost the financial health of the industry, which is the backbone of a digitally connected India,\" SP Kochhar- DG, COAI<\/a> said in a statement.
Kochar said that the government’s decision to auction spectrum by March,2021 will enable the industry to cater to the exponential increase in data usage and continue supporting the Digital India<\/a> vision.
