The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) said on Tuesday that it has been asked to expedite the process for its recommendations on the reserve price of 2100 MHz band and issued the consultation paper to seek comments on issues related to valuation and reserve price.
In a statement TRAI said, “DoT requested TRAI to expedite the process for its recommendations on the reserve price of 2100 MHz band and related issues so that the auction of spectrum in this band could be conducted along with the auction of spectrum in the 800/900/1800 MHz bands scheduled in February 2015.”
The regulator said that the key issues raised in the consultation paper relate to the roll-out obligations, spectrum cap, different models and approaches for the valuation of the spectrum and estimate of reserve price of spectrum in the 2100 MHz.
