Three separate sub-committees were also formed from amongst the members of the Committee to identify infructuous/ redundant regulations on (a) licensing, (b) QoS, and (c) tariff related issues. The sub-committee members from the industry had submitted written inputs which were considered, discussed and analysed in the meetings of¹Hkkx IIIµ[k.M 4º Hkkjr dk jkti=k % vlk/kj.k 9 respective sub-committees. Based on such deliberations, the sub-committees had submitted their recommendations to the Chairperson of the Committee. 3. The recommendations regarding purging of regulations made by the three sub-committees were circulated to all the members of the Committee. The final meeting of the Committee was held on 28th December 2017. 4. After due deliberations, the Committee has submitted final recommendations. The recommendations of the Committee, interalia, include proposals to delete, merge, or modify various provisions of the Telecommunication Tariff Order (TTO). The final recommendations of the Committee on issues related to TTO are placed as Annexure to the TTO 64th Amendment. 5. Even though the issues covered in the TTO (64th) Amendment were in line with the deliberations and recommendations in various committee meetings, the Authority considered it appropriate to seek further views of stakeholders by releasing the draft TTO seeking comments of stakeholders vide Press Release dated 09.07.2018. 6. The last date to receive comments was 26.07.2018 and the last date to receive counter comments was 06.08.2018. Only two stakeholders namely Vodafone India Limited and COAI have submitted comments. 7. Both COAI and Vodafone India Limited were generally in agreement with the proposed provisions of 64th Amendment. However, they have invited attention of the Authority to several other suggestions on related issues such as: (i) Minimum tariff protection of six months should be changed to three months. (ii) Quarterly tariff compliance w.r.t bulk customers should be done away with/ or should be made a part of yearly TRAI compliances. (iii) Tariff Ceilings specified for National Roaming tariffs should be abolished and should be left to market forces. (iv) Publication of tariff information in national and vernacular language newspaper after every six months should be removed. (v) Flexibility to use the denomination of Rupees Ten and multiples thereof for STVs and Combo vouchers also in addition to Top up voucher. (vi) Processing fee on Top up voucher should be removed. (vii) M-bill or e-bill should be considered as default option for post-paid billing replacing of hard copy (viii) DLC tariff ceiling should be removed and let market forces to decide the tariffs. (ix) Floor price of 50p/Short Message Services (SMS) sent by persons other than a telemarketer registered under regulation 14 or an entity sending transactional message should be removed. 8. The Authority considered the comments provided by COAI and Vodafone and also closely looked at the deliberations made during several meetings of the committee and that of the sub-committee on tariff set up for purging infructuous regulations. It was found that the above issues were raised and deliberated upon during the meeting with members of the committee which, inter alia, included representatives from both COAI and Vodafone. Extracts from the final recommendations of the committee which is annexed to this TTO lists the decisions taken on various issues and the rationale thereof. The purpose of this TTO is basically to delete, modify or merge various infructuous provisions of TTO as per the recommendations of the committee. Other suggestions for reviewing any existing tariff ceiling, regulation or direction can be considered separately as recommended by the committee. 9. One specific suggestion made in the comments on the draft TTO 64th Amendment is to explicitly clarify that the ceiling on security deposit which is not more than 12 months rental should not be made applicable to International Roaming and ISD. The Authority is in agreement with this suggestion. It is hereby clarified that the ceiling on Security deposit mentioned in clause 5 of the principal tariff order will not be applicable for ISD and International Roaming Services. S.K.
