Indian Telco Industry - Oligopoly to TriologyVishal Sharma
Indian telco industry currently has 4 major players but consolidation could reduce that to 3, worsening the oligopoly. A reduction in players would negatively impact 5G rollout and India's GDP growth, employment, banks' balance sheets, and India's global brand under Prime Minister Modi. Failure of this important sector would undermine India's digital transformation and services sector.

The document summarizes changes in the Indian economy before and after liberalization.
Before liberalization, the Indian economy was stagnant with supply-side inflation, no foreign exchange reserves, and a politicized public sector. After the first wave of liberalization in the 1990s, the economy saw major reforms in the finance, telecom, tax, and insurance sectors that led to growth. The second wave of liberalization further opened sectors like banking, energy, and corporate governance to private and foreign investment. These changes transformed India into a rapidly growing market-based economy.

The document summarizes weekly news from the Indian IT sector from September 6-12, 2010. It discusses Ohio banning offshore outsourcing to India, Indian software companies providing vendor financing to struggling US customers, HP and Bharti exploring cloud services for small/medium businesses in India, and Mahindra Satyam focusing on the aerospace and defense market. It also mentions Wipro may pass increased US visa fees to clients, banks considering alternatives to Blackberry, and India proposing to allow foreign firms to set up new businesses without local joint venture partner approval.
The document summarizes the 2G spectrum scam in India, where telecom licenses were illegally issued to companies at substantially lower prices than their market value, resulting in an estimated loss of $38 billion to the exchequer. Key people involved included former telecom minister A. Raja, who is accused of undercharging companies and ignoring regulatory advice. The scam benefited certain companies with political connections who obtained licenses without proper qualifications and later sold stakes at large profits. Several business and political figures were arrested or named in investigations into the corrupt practices. The government took steps to investigate and address the issue.

The failed $1.5 billion merger talks between Tata Teleservices and Hughes Telecom India has turned the companies into rivals. The collapse of the deal is bad for both startups but worse for Hughes, as it missed an opportunity in one of Asia's most promising telecom markets.

A 5-year timeline includes short-term promotions, increasing landline and internet subscribers, domain facilities, and wireless landlines. A contingency plan would merge with another company or stop promotions if losses continue after corrective steps.

After 32 days of bidding, the FM radio auction in India concluded with high prices in major cities like Mumbai, Delhi, and Bangalore, but 38 channels in 13 cities received no bids. This was due to artificial scarcity of frequencies in premium locations, with not enough slots available to meet demand. While the top cities accounted for 45% of total bids, equivalent amounts were spent on the rest of the country. Analysts worry this could delay investments in smaller tier 3 cities and rural areas. The reserve prices set in the auction may have been too high, and the auction design did not prevent strategic bidding that inflated prices. The government will need to address these issues to expand radio access affordably across India as intended.

Thailand has a robust mobile market with over 68 million subscribers and a penetration rate of over 100%. The top three mobile operators are AIS, DTAC, and True Move, who collectively control over 67% of the market. While mobile phone ownership is widespread, adoption of 3G services remains low at only 1.3% of subscribers due to poor infrastructure. The government recognizes the need to improve connectivity and has awarded 3G licenses and allocated funding to expand high-speed networks.
Merger talks between tata teleservices and russia’s sistema , ntt do como loo...Proglobalcorp India
Merger talks between Tata Teleservices and Russia's Sistema have advanced, with negotiations focused on a deal that would transfer NTT DoCoMo's stake in Tata Teleservices and part of the Tata Group's holding to Sistema, giving it a majority stake. However, the deal is on hold until India announces a new telecom merger and acquisition policy in the next three months. Tata Teleservices is losing money and customers, while under heavy debt, prompting the Tata Group to seek an exit from the telecom sector by reducing its stake to a minority and allowing Sistema to acquire a majority stake through this deal.
The telecom industry in India ranks 3rd globally and has the 2nd largest network in Asia. It has experienced rapid growth, with wireless subscribers increasing from 150 million in 2007 to over 850 million in 2012. However, the industry now faces challenges of market saturation, declining revenues due to intense price competition, and low ARPU. The future of the industry depends on expanding rural connectivity, leveraging new technologies like 3G, increasing value-added services, and more infrastructure sharing between providers. Strict regulation by TRAI has both helped and posed difficulties for telecom companies in India.
T Mobile's Opportunity to win Sprint and 5Gthomas paulson
T-Mobile has created a unique opportunity for substantial value creation through its focus on enhancing consumer value, the limitations of its competitors like Sprint, and the transition to 5G networks. If the proposed merger with Sprint is approved, allowing T-Mobile to realize synergies, and if 5G adoption accelerates industry growth and margins improve, the company's stock price could rise to over $245 per share, representing a 3x return for investors. The document discusses how T-Mobile has gained significant market share and profitability in recent years through its "Un-carrier" strategy of increasing consumer value and how the Sprint merger would replicate T-Mobile's past successful acquisition of MetroPCS.
The telecom industry in India went through significant changes and disruption in 2017. There was increased consolidation with mergers and acquisitions reducing the number of operators. Data consumption increased dramatically with the expansion of 4G networks. However, financial performance declined for operators due to intense price competition resulting in falling tariffs. Going forward, consolidation is expected to improve service quality and investment capabilities. Operators will need to focus on improving network capacity and enhancing the customer experience to address ongoing challenges of high debt levels, competitive pressures and changing revenue models.
The document summarizes the telecom industry crisis in India resulting from a Supreme Court ruling on Adjusted Gross Revenue (AGR) dues. The ruling requires telecom companies to pay over 1 lakh crore in back dues. This could bankrupt Vodafone Idea and lead to job losses. It threatens the stability of the telecom sector and digital economy. Allowing only two companies could hurt consumers and investments. Urgent relief is needed to save Vodafone Idea from shutdown and ensure fair competition in the industry.
This document discusses oligopolistic market structures and provides examples of cartels. It summarizes that an oligopoly is characterized by a small number of firms producing either homogeneous or heterogeneous products. A cartel is an explicit agreement among firms in an oligopoly to fix prices, output levels, or market shares. Examples of successful cartels mentioned are OPEC and De Beers. The document also discusses collusion, game theory, and provides an example of cellular operators in India engaging in collusive practices.
Reliance Industries Ltd.: Reliance Jio vs Airtel: Indian billionaires -Bharti Airtel vs Reliance Jio Securities Telecom Battle in India- Telecom war: How will Bharti Airtel & Reliance Jio move forward to #makeIndiagreatIndia
This document summarizes the state of the telecom industry in India since 2008. Key points include:
- Tariffs crashed by 40% since 2008 as consumers resisted high prices and companies offered heavy discounts.
- The 2010 spectrum auction secured government finances but increased debt for companies.
- TRAI's new proposed auction prices could help revive an industry that has struggled since 2008. However, the telecom sector only contributes 2.2% to India's GDP.
- Rising debt levels and underperformance of stock prices indicate the industry remains stressed despite hopes that lower auction prices and reforms may boost growth.
Rajeev Chandrasekhar Points To The Flaws in Telecos’ Arguments Against Net Ne...Newslaundry
1. The document counters arguments made by telecom companies (telcos) in response to TRAI's consultation paper on regulating over-the-top (OTT) services.
2. It argues that ensuring the viability of telcos' businesses or their ability to invest should not compromise consumers' rights or allow telcos to act as gatekeepers to the Internet.
3. The document also rejects telcos' arguments that regulating OTT services is needed for a "level playing field" or that net neutrality principles must be compromised to expand broadband access in India.
The document summarizes various news stories from the 2nd week of August-September:
1) The telecom department is examining proposals to allow new mobile operators who received licenses under controversial circumstances to exit the market, paving the way for possible industry consolidation among the existing 14 players.
2) Reliance Industries surprised investors by acquiring a 14.12% stake in hospitality company EIH, which runs Oberoi and Trident hotel chains, paying over 30% premium and disrupting ITC's plans to control the company.
3) The government's claim of 8.8% GDP growth in the first quarter has been questioned by economists as the demand-side numbers show much lower growth of
GCC telecom operators are facing new industry trends that will require adaptation, including rising data usage, new technologies, and more aggressive over-the-top players. After a period of strong growth, the telecom market in the Gulf region has matured and now operators must improve customer experience, create synergies across products, and address changing consumer behaviors to remain successful. The document outlines several new trends impacting the industry, such as increased data usage, new technologies like 4G, the rise of over-the-top players capturing voice and messaging revenues, and consumers prioritizing applications over operators. Operators will need to redefine pricing, retention, customer experience, and partnerships to adapt to these new dynamics.
Businessworld 20 May 2010 Telcos up as costly 3G auction ends;hurdles aheadJagannadham Thunuguntla
The 3G mobile license auction in India ended with the government receiving $14.6 billion in revenues, nearly double what was expected. While shares of top mobile operators rose initially, concerns remain about the high costs stretching balance sheets and potentially diluting earnings. Bharti Airtel in particular saw its hopes of a nationwide 3G license dashed due to the high prices. The auction resulted in no single carrier winning licenses for all regions in India.

"Eventually, telecom stocks will come under pressure. No one has got an all-India licence, still the amount they are paying is not small. Their balance sheets will be stretched," said Jagannadham Thunuguntla, equity head SMC Capital in New Delhi.
“The 3G auction price will certainly act as a trigger for consolidation in the sector,” said Jagannadham Thunuguntla, the equity head for leading brokerage firm SMC Capital.
“But in the meanwhile, investors are not going to be kind to telecom stocks as the price paid for spectrum has been way above expectations,” Thunuguntla told IANS, adding these stocks were already out of favour since last year.

1. Telcos' clash: Erase call termination fee, says Jio; others want it doubled
There is little new in the demands telecom companies made at their meeting with the sector regulator on Tuesday to decide on what is
known as inter-connect charges (IUC).
While Airtel, Vodafone and Idea asked for doubling of the rate, or more, Reliance Jio asked for its complete removal. Their hardened
positions, however, makes it clear to Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (Trai) Chairman R S Sharma that there will be no
compromise among them, without sorting of their other contradictory pain points.
The new element in the once hugely successful business sector is the re-emergence of friction at historical levels. When it had
happened in 1999, the then government had framed the new telecom policy. When it again happened nine years later in 2008, it led to
the so-called 2G scam. And now, nine years later, the friction has again surfaced.
While the number of years is a coincidence, the potential to create disturbances in the policy is not. The losses for most of these
companies are unexceptionally high. At the same time, the financial stake for the government from them is also high.
From the successive rounds of auctions, the government has so far collected over Rs 3.6 lakh crore, which is close to 25 per cent of its
total non-tax revenue in the past seven years, a report by rating agency Icra notes.
What is inter connect charges?
2. Telcos' clash: Erase call termination fee, says Jio; others want it doubled
Whenever a mobile voice call from one network to another network is made, the company where the call originated pays this charge to
the recipient Companies News in India. This is known as the IUC, and it has been in existence under section 11 of the Trai Act since
2003. That was the year the regulator scrapped the system of making the recipient of a mobile phone call pay for the cost.
Telecom companies instead moved to charge one another and build the cost into their tariff plans. Under this system, those who get
more calls benefit at the expense of those who receive it, so older networks like Airtel and others earn more. Reliance Jio sees it as a
revenue dampener.
About a year ago, Trai moved a consultation paper asking for the charges to be clipped, and that created a furore. Going by the
competition theory, there is a reason to clip it, since it encourages companies to milk on their past investments without any incentive
to cut costs.
3. Telcos' clash: Erase call termination fee, says Jio; others want it doubled
It is like the higher revenue the government used to pay to older fertiliser companies, known as gold plating. The higher the costs, the
greater the demand for higher IUC.
At the same time, Sharma has not been able to cut other costs for older companies — licensed telecom companies need to pay to the
government about 8 per cent of their total revenue from all the lines of business they might be involved in.
It is in addition to the price they pay to buy spectrum, its usage and other things, but they have no ability to partner with any content
player to earn additional revenue. Could the government at this stage offer a grand bargain for the companies? This remains to be seen.
