毫无疑问，沃达丰Idea将会生存下来，在市场上具有竞争力，资金很快就会到来:塔卡
塔卡表示，电信公司愿意将延期会费的利息转换为政府股权。
孟买:沃达丰的想法是否愿意将延期法定会费的利息转换为政府股权，董事总经理Ravinder Takkar他补充说，四年的延期付款将确保亏损的电信公司生存下来并具有竞争力。
Takkar在政府于9月15日推出该行业救助计划后的第一次媒体互动中表示，该公司将把因暂停而节省下来的现金投资于扩大网络和参与5G拍卖，而不是偿还债务。
Takkar表示，政府已经解决了潜在投资者的所有担忧，这将使这家资金紧张的电信公司能够迅速启动并完成融资过程。不过他补充说，出售光纤和数据中心等资产现在不是优先考虑的事项。
Takkar对记者表示:“毫无疑问，这家公司将会生存下来，不仅会生存下来，还会做得很好，并在市场上竞争。”
该电信公司的股票周三在BSE收盘下跌3.9%，至10.39卢比。
Takkar表示，沃达丰Idea的发起人——英国沃达丰集团(Vodafone Group PLC)和Aditya Birla集团(ABG)——一直支持该电信公司，也可以参与即将到来的融资。
他补充称，即使以股权稀释为代价，这两家发起人也一直支持融资计划，预计这种情况将持续下去。
在救助计划出台后，他敦促银行重新审视沃达丰Idea，随着不确定性的阴云散去，支持该电信公司的扩张努力。
该方案包括暂停付款和降低银行担保。在任何时候，电信公司在电信部门都有大约2300 - 250亿卢比的bg。
他说:“我们预计双方都将采取行动。首先，定价应得到改善，并有机地采取行动。然后，我们计划进行的投资将改善我们的覆盖范围、客户体验等。”“这也将改变我们的组合，并推动我们的ARPU(每用户平均收益)增长。”
政府为该行业提供了一项救助计划，因为人们越来越担心，现金短缺的运营商可能会被推向破产，无法履行其支付义务，包括调整后的总营收(AGR)分期付款和银行贷款偿还。这将使印度市场与国有的印度电信公司(BSNL)一起，变成一个私人双头垄断的市场。
“政府采取措施增强沃达丰Idea投资者和员工的信心”
他说:“政府的支持将给投资者信心，并有助于向该公司注入资金。”这与一些分析师的观点相矛盾。一些分析师认为，政府周三宣布的救助计划可能不足以解决该公司长期的流动性紧缩问题。
政府还宣布暂停四年AGR和频谱支付，分析师表示，此举允许沃达丰Idea在四年内推迟累计支付近1万亿卢比(每年约2400 - 250亿卢比)。
Takkar拒绝就现金救济的数量发表评论，称他正在等待政府的计算，并补充说，中央已经明确表示不希望在该领域出现双头垄断或垄断。
该方案的其他关键内容包括，电信运营商可以选择将延期付款的利息金额转换为政府股权。该中心还可选择在暂停期结束时，将经营者因延期付款而欠下的应付款项转换为股权，其指导方针将由财政部．
“就权益转换本身而言，我们将在董事会批准和指导方针的基础上更加开放地转换为股权。我们需要看到并理解这些条款。”
Aditya Birla集团和沃达丰集团分别持有该电信公司27.66%和44.39%的股份。截至6月底，该公司欠下160亿卢比。
关于四年后将政府会费转换为股权的问题，塔卡说，这个要求可以等待。
“没有必要担心四年后会发生什么，因为我们不知道公司会在哪里。但是拥有这种灵活性是非常非常有用的。”
但他表示，政府无意经营另一家电信公司，并打消了如果印度决定将未偿还本金转换为股权，政府可能会变成一家国有公司的担忧。
塔卡说:“他们(政府)已经非常明确地对我们说，你们是管理这方面的专家，他们希望我们来管理。”
这位总经理说，他现在计划向公司董事会汇报最新情况。当被问及融资计划是否保持在2500亿卢比，或者可能会增加时，塔卡没有做出承诺。
他表示:“我不能多说或少说，但我们必须更新我们的计划，并将其反馈给董事会。”
与竞争对手一样，Vi也要求最低关税，不会回避成为第一个提高关税的公司，并预计其ARPU将首先升至200卢比，最终达到300卢比。
现在有了这个包和来自政府的消息支持到行业它创造了一个以某种有机方式开始调整定价的环境，”塔卡说。
分析师:AGR，频谱暂停，帮助沃达丰Idea推迟9600亿卢比的支付，避免破产
不过，他们警告说，尽管法定支付延期了四年，但英国沃达丰有限公司和印度Aditya Birla集团之间的电信合资企业的财务挑战还没有结束，因为四年暂停期间的应计利息将进一步增加电信公司1.9万亿卢比的巨额债务。

<\/figure>Mumbai: Vodafone Idea<\/a> is open to converting the interest on deferred statutory dues into government equity, managing director Ravinder Takkar<\/a> said, adding that the four-year payment moratorium will ensure that the loss-making telco survives and is competitive.
The company will invest the cash saved due to the moratorium into expanding its network and participating in 5G auctions instead of repaying debt, Takkar said in his first media interaction after the government rolled out a relief package for the sector on September 15.
Takkar said the government had addressed all the concerns of potential investors, which will allow the cash-strapped telco to kickstart and conclude its fundraising process quickly. He added though that the sale of assets such as fibre and the data centre are now not a priority.

\u201cThere is no doubt that this company will survive and not only will it survive, it will do well and also compete in the market,\u201d Takkar told reporters.
The telco\u2019s stock closed 3.9% down at Rs 10.39 on the BSE Wednesday.
Takkar said Vodafone Idea\u2019s promoters \u2013 UK\u2019s Vodafone Group PLC and the Aditya Birla Group (ABG) \u2013 have always been supportive of the telco and can participate in the upcoming fundraising too.
The two promoters have always backed fundraising initiatives even at the cost of their stake dilution and that is expected to continue, he added.
Following the relief package, he urged banks to look at Vodafone Idea afresh and back the telco\u2019s expansion efforts as the cloud of uncertainty has lifted.
The package includes the payment moratorium and lowered bank guarantees (BGs). The telco, at any point, has around Rs23,000-25,000 crore of BGs with the telecom department.
\u201cWe expect action will take place on both ends for us \u2013 one, pricing should improve and take all up organically. Then, the investments that we plan to make will improve our coverage, customer experience and so on,\u201d Takkar said. \u201cIt will change the mix for us as well and drive ARPU (average revenue per user) growth for us.\u201d

<\/div><\/div>Vodafone Idea is India's only loss-making private telco, weighed down by debt of Rs 1.9 lakh crore that built up as the business faced heat from competition. At the same time it needed to continue to spend on spectrum and networks, hurting profitability.
The government stepped in with a relief package for the sector as fears rose that the cash-strapped operator may be pushed toward bankruptcy, unable to meet its payment obligations, including adjusted gross revenue (AGR) instalments and bank loan repayments. That would have turned the Indian market into a private-player duopoly, along with state-owned BSNL.
