DoT to ask Vodafone Idea for payment this week
With Airtel and Tata Teleservice having submitted their self assessment figures on AGR which though are subject to DoT reconciliation, the government will ask Vodafone Idea this week to apprise them of their numbers and submit the dues simultaneously.
The prospects of any major relief to the telcos before the Next Supreme Court hearing on March 17 is dim and official sources said they have to pay first as per their self assessment, as it”s not an overnight issue and they should have been prepared for it and provisioned.
