Spectrum auction to kick off on Sept 29 The government will kick off the biggest ever spectrum auction on 2016 September 29 and plans to assign spectrum won in the auction within 30 calendar days from the date of making the payment, which takes 10 days. The government is making available 2354.55 MHz of spectrum in the auctions and at base price it would garner Rs 5.56 lakh crore, which includes the additional Rs 27,000 crore of harmonised spectrum.

Reliance Jio likely to launch 4G services on Aug 15: report Reliance Jio Infocomm, the digital arm of billionaire Mukesh Ambani-controlled Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL), would offer free voice along with its data services. The company is expected to launch its 4G services on August 15, according to a report. “When Jio commercially launches its telco services (expected on August 15) we expect the company to offer a differentiated offering. In our view, it will be unlimited VoLTE voice bundled with its data offering above Rs. 300 per month,” Bank of America Merrill Lynch said in a report. “Overall, we see pressure on voice revenues and tariff hikes but do not believe VoLTE voice will materially impact industry voice revenues for the next 12-18 months,” it added. VoLTE technology has certain inherent advantages over traditional voice including better spectral efficiency, richer voice and better call quality and lower load on network among others. “Vendors have indicated to us that Jio has adequate capacity (850, 1800, 2300 MHz) to offer unlimited voice without congestion for the next few years at least,” the report dated August 4, said. source

Voice-minutes billing will go away Pricing for VoLTE has yet to be announced, but you can find a good clue in Verizon Wireless and AT&T Mobility's recent moves to introduce "family plans" in which customers get unlimited voice and messaging services along with a "bucket" of data that they can share across multiple devices. Since VoLTE acts as just another data app, it will probably help to bring an end to the old "minutes" paradigm. source Cheers

Jio tariff will be different -that is only data bill -for both data and voice calls Voice calls too would be converted to data consumption with VoLTE Average Industry voice consumption per user is around 400 minutes per month This would roughly translate to less than 1GB per YEAR in data which is very less That is win-win for Jio and user Time to board JIO ship with LYF handsets and to pay only for data -used both for internet and voice
