rajanmehta 4,056 Report post Posted February 25, 2013 Selected Circles if you believe MTS Press Release, “Sistema Shyam TeleServices is committed to its operations in India. It today submitted its application to participate in the 800-MHz spectrum auctions. After auctions, with the operational footprint clearly defined, the plan is to focus on data-centric voice-enabled strategy in select circles and build an even stronger MTS brand in India,” the company said in a statement.

avishekghosh 45 Report post Posted February 25, 2013 The only concern is how much ammount of spectrum in which circles they will buy! Sent from my hTc Droid Incredible 2 on MTS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sougatadc 358 Report post Posted February 25, 2013 And I pray to God that MTS need not to belch out a hefty lot in the ensuing sell-off for which the tariff gets bloated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sougatadc 358 Report post Posted February 26, 2013 MTS is the only bidder in the 2G auction source All the operators are playing subtle games and throwing the Govt as well as the apex court in Catch 22 position. What will be the position if GSM spectrums for some circles remain unsold this time also? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
avishekghosh 45 Report post Posted February 26, 2013 (edited) They are going for only 11 circles Ya, it's true if we believe the last press release of MTS.... But I think actual scenario will be different. BTW hope they will buy highest available amount of spectrum in most of the circles. Because they need the extra amount of spectrum to launch evdo rev.B with simultaneous voice service in near future. Now let's hope for the best. Hope they will carry cheap tariff with strong network which is the trademark of MTS.

KAPILKDEV 68 Report post Posted February 26, 2013 I think MTS will buy minimal amount of spectrum in this auction and save the the existing customers. As the spectrum still remaining unsold, Government will again reduce the price and MTS try to acquire more spectrum in low cost. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KAPILKDEV 68 Report post Posted March 7, 2013 MTS will surely get license in West Bengal and other 10 circles in the base price as no other applicant in the coming 2G auction. MTS has license upto 11 March and auction will be held on the same day, so MTS can continue it's service. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KAPILKDEV 68 Report post Posted March 11, 2013 MTS got license in these circles Delhi, Karnataka, Kerala, Tamilnadu, Gujarat, Kolkata, West bengal. One more circle, but it is not confirm. MTS has already license in Rajastan circle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rajanmehta 4,056 Report post Posted March 11, 2013 Final Circles acquired by MTS are Delhi, Gujarat, Karnataka, Kerala, Kolkata, Tamilnadu, Uttar Pradesh (West), West Bengal. Mumbai, Maharashtra & Uttar Pradesh (East) circles are out & MTS services should stop there. The loss of this 3 circles are gain for subscribers of other circles as MTS acquired 3 blocks of 1.25 Mhz spectrum each in other circles instead of 2 blocks for which it deposited earnest money. So more spectrum for continuing circles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KAPILKDEV 68 Report post Posted March 11, 2013 (edited) Good news to hear that more blocks in continuing circles, but loss of 3 circles is a really bad news Edited March 11, 2013 by KAPILKDEV Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
