Himanshu Singh 19 Report post Posted April 1, 2009 TRAI had reduced the termination charges from 30paise to 20paise a minute to be effective from April 1. I havent heard of any operator passing on any benefits to the consumers. Please correct me if my assessment is wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Himanshu Singh 19 Report post Posted April 1, 2009 (edited) There is nothing in my post which shows i had high hopes.I had long ago pointed out while discussing on lifetime jaadu pack that call rates cant fall below 50paise for local and 1 for std even if termination or carriage fees are lowered. and thats why i differed from some members who argued that by april call rates would automatically fall to the levels of lifetime jaadu pack, and therefore they said its not a good idea to commit 550 rupees. i stand vindicated today atleast for the time behng.

vvinayakpai 26 Report post Posted April 1, 2009 (edited) It seems that the telecom operators are going to fight out another long drawn battle regarding the termination costs. BSNL has filed a petition in TDSAT on March 30th to stay the TRAI order which reduced MTC from 30ps/min to 20ps/min stating that Termination costs to landlines are 3-4 times higher than Mobile-mobile termination costs. THE COAI(GSM boby) and the AUSPI(CDMA Body) have filed an application to TDSAT requesting them to be made parties to the case as any judgement passed by TDSAT without hearing their pleas might have a negative impact o them. THE TDSAT heard the petition of BSNL, COAI and AUSPI on March 31st and directed BSNL counsel to serve notices to AUSPI and COAI regarding the petition and also to file an application to include COAi and AUSPI as parties to the case. BSNL counsel has assured the court that the petitions would be handed to COAI and AUSPI on April 1st and the case has been postponed for hearing on April 2nd, 2009.
