Within weeks of an increase in mobile tariffs by some of the major players, the telecom regulator has asked them to justify the increase in call rates.
In a recent communication to the operators, including Bharti Airtel, Vodafone Essar and Idea Cellular, the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (Trai) has asked whether they have increased their prices and sought the details of the increased tariff plans.
Mobile tariffs are currently under forbearance, which means these are determined by market forces. However, Trai can intervene to protect the consumers and operators interest. A senior executive from one of the telecom companies mentioned above confirmed receiving the communication from Trai.
Currently, operators are required to notify Trai for any change in tariff plans, introduction of new plans as well the changes in call rates within 30 days.
