The ministry of communications has fixed the price for pan India licenses at $720 million (Rs 3,500 crore) and will offer 3G licenses in four slots, in each of India’s 22 service areas. Here are the details of the availability of the 3G spectrum in each telecom circle in the country.
Pre-bid conference That’s not all! The government is also planning a pre-bid conference on October 12. October 8 is the deadline for submitting questions for the conference … do you need that in triplicate?!. In case your auction skills are out of practice, telcos can enjoy a mock auction planned for October 3rd and 4th. The actual launch of 3G
3G was formally launched in India in December 2008 by the Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh with much fanfare. The 3G spectrum was allotted to state telcos, MTNL and BSNL without them ever participating in an auction of the spectrum, which has given them an upper edge over the private players in the country. Turns out that this hasn’t helped them much, as we’ve already reported, 3G services in India kinda suck so far.
However, the state telcos will pay the same bidding amount as private telcos in the December auction. MTNL launched its 3G services, Jadoo, in Delhi and Mumbai, while BSNL launched its 3G service, Pan India, in February 2009. |
