BWA = 4G = LTE / WiMax
In June, 2010 the government auctioned two slots of BWA spectrum, which Infotel, Aircel, Qualcomm, etc won. Now some more spectrum have been freed up and it will be going under the hammer by the end of this year.
Govt is planning 4G spectrum auction by end of this year. This is really ridiculous as users have still not embrace 3G due to high cost. Even telcos are worried about their investment. Telcos are in big trouble if this happens. If they dont bid, then new cos will get it and will offer 4G at almost same price. IF they bid, then they need to invest again billions. This makes no business sense. Govt should also think how they are going to support industry with such policies.
