新德里:全球电信集团GSMA周一表示,印度政府应该与行业监管机构共同努力火车(印度电信管理局)重新考虑700兆赫带频谱定价。“GSMA敦促印度政府与监管机构调整为700 MHz频段频谱定价,“GSMA首席监管官员约翰Giusti在一份声明中说。
该组织还说,世界各国政府应该从印度举行拍卖,因为它未能吸引买家在700 Mhz频带和周全对待分配频谱。
,根据高管,已经警告政府,由于价格较高的高度受欢迎的乐队在超过600亿美元的水平,就卖出。
GSMA成员和市场的领导者之一Bharti Airtel的苏尼尔•米塔尔最近被称为未售出的电波在700 Mhz频段“错失良机”,并说政府应该重新定价的有效频带。
政府把770 Mhz频段的700 Mhz频带的保留价格11485卢比每单位考虑到乐队的事实
最好提供更高的覆盖率要求由服务提供者减少资本支出。
“储备价格高企抑制投资或延迟在下一代网络中部署时对移动数据的需求激增。监管机构应该考虑当地市场的条件为频谱拍卖,设定最低价格”Giusti说。
GSMA还表示,印度市场有一个低的每用户平均收入(ARPU)站在2.45美元(近170卢比),截至2015年底。
在许多市场,服务提供商,根据它,正在努力证明采购范围的业务案例储备价格高企,证明在印度,以及澳大利亚和塞内加尔在700 MHz的拍卖。
GSMA说推迟部署700 Mhz频段频谱将伤害的消费者时,已经有一个充满活力的全球生态系统在700 Mhz频段里超过100 LTE网络推出了全球469支持的设备。

NEW DELHI: Global telco group GSMA<\/a> Monday said that the Indian government should work together with the sector regulator Trai<\/a> (Telecom Regulatory Authority of India) to reconsider 700 Mhz<\/a> band spectrum pricing.\u201cThe GSMA urges the Indian government to work with the regulator to recalibrate spectrum pricing for the 700 MHz band,\u201d GSMA chief regulatory officer John Giusti<\/a> said in a statement.
The group also added that governments worldwide should take a cue from the recently-concluded Indian auction as it failed to woo bidders in the 700 Mhz band and take a well-considered approach towards allocating spectrum.
<\/div><\/div>\u201cThe GSMA is concerned that, after the Indian auction, none of the 700 MHz band can be used to expand mobile broadband coverage to Indian citizens, Giusti said.
The group, according to top executive, had already cautioned the government and due to the high price of the highly sought-after band at a level of more than US$60 billion, it went unsold.
One of the GSMA members and market leader Bharti Airtel<\/a>\u2019s Sunil Mittal<\/a> recently termed the unsold airwaves in the 700 Mhz band as a \u2018missed opportunity\u2019 and said that the government should relook into the pricing of this efficient frequency band.
The government had put 770 Mhz of spectrum in the 700 Mhz band at a reserve price of Rs 11,485 crore per unit considering that fact that the band is
the best to offer higher coverage requiring less capital expenditure by service providers.
\u201cHigh reserve prices inhibit investment or delay deployment in next-generation networks at a time when demand for mobile data is exploding. Regulators should consider the conditions of the local market when setting reserve prices for spectrum auctions,\u201d Giusti said.
GSMA also said that the Indian market has a low average revenue per user (ARPU) which stands at $2.45 (nearly Rs 170), as of the end of 2015.

<\/div><\/div>Timely deployment of this spectrum will expand the reach of mobile broadband services and deliver positive social and economic benefits to the country\u2019s citizens, creating a truly digital India, the London-based group added.
In many markets, service providers, according to it, are struggling to justify the business case for purchasing spectrum at high reserve prices, as proven in India, as well as in the 700 MHz auctions in Australia and Senegal.
GSMA said the delay in deployment of 700 Mhz band spectrum will 'hurt' consumers at a time when there is already a vibrant global ecosystem in the 700 MHz band with over 100 LTE networks launched worldwide, supported by 469 devices. <\/div><\/div>
