Centre issues regulations to rate buildings for digital connectivity
The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) released regulations titled ‘Rating of Properties for Digital Connectivity Regulations, 2024,’ that came into effect from today.
The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) was on Thursday asked by the Telecom Disputes Settlement and Appellate Tribunal (TDSAT) to re-examine issues pertaining to Reliance Jio's free promotional offers. However, no stay was given on the offers.
TDSAT directed the regulatory body to re-examine the issues and inform it within two weeks, according to sources. Reliance Jio, had launched free voice and data plan in September 2016 and had extended it till 31 March 2017.
Incumbent players Bharti Airtel and Idea Cellular had lodged a complaint with the telecom tribunal against TRAI for letting Reliance Jio continue with promotional offers beyond 90 days.
