Despite the data consumption peaking at 12 GB per user per month, the telecom networks did not fail even for a day. z The pandemic has accelerated the adoption of next-generation technologies such as automation and virtualisation, and has given a new impetus to indoor connectivity, creating a robust demand for digital infrastructure. These trends will continue to shape the sector in a post-Covid world as well, and IP-1s are geared up to seize this opportunity. z In recent years, towercos have shifted their business focus from traditional offerings to new and emerging areas such as fibre, small cells, Wi-Fi, IoT, smart poles and data centres, in a bid to become end-to-end digital infrastructure providers. This has helped towercos in strengthening their position in the evolving digital value chain, with greater participation in programmes like Digital India and the Smart Cities Mission.

    Arvind Jalota, Head of Projects & Carrier Business, Videocon Telecommunications People , March 12, 2014 Arvind Jalota has over 23 years of work experience, having started out as a software professional and worked in the telecom industry for the past 15 years. In the initial eight years, he was involved in software designing and architecture, in India and internationally. In 2004, he joined Quadrant Televentures Limited (formerly known as HFCL Infotel Limited) as business head, enterprise and carrier business. Aside from achieving substantial growth in the business vertical, he managed major projects for large corporate houses. One of the successful projects was the launch of commercial VSAT services in the XC and KU bands within the stipulated period of nine months – from licence acquisition to service launch. Another was the signing of agreements with Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited and Mahanagar Telephone Nigam Limited for IPTV services. Jalota’s next big opportunity came when HFCL Infotel was acquired by Videocon Telecommunications in 2010. He became a part of Videocon and at present is head of the carrier and enterprise business for international and domestic markets, project management and telecom infrastructure development. He was one of the core team members to be given the responsibility of undertaking Videocon’s telecom roll-out in India. Jalota identifies the roll-out of international long distance (ILD) services for Videocon as his most challenging assignment at the company.

In this regard, we would like to first draw the Authority’s aĥenĕon to our detailed response to the consultaĕon paper on 17th October 2016, where in inter‐alia, we had I. Urged the Authority to re‐consider the consultaĕon for following reasons: A. Timing of the Consultation violates Authority’s own past decision on the issue. B. The consultation exercise is premature, as legal challenges to the 2015 Regulations are sub­ judice. C. Apparent contradiction of TRAI’s stand on Interconnect settlement principle (BAK in present Consultation) vis­a­vis earlier years’ and current consultation. D. Fallacies in Consultation Paper – Misleading and wrong conclusions drawn based on incorrect and selective statements to advocate BAK regime / reduction in IUC. E. TRAI oblivious of International Experience on Mobile Termination Charges. F. Selective and misleading representation of international markets for advocating lower Termination Charges in India. II.
