工会内阁可以考虑在星期三暂停付款频谱费这是电信行业一揽子计划的一部分，旨在缓解诸如沃达丰的想法他们必须支付数千亿卢比的未准备的法定会费。的救援包正在考虑的方案包括，电信公司可以选择转换四年频谱使用费的利息暂停时间进入政府股权的三位知情人士表示。
这一举动发生在亿万富翁六周之后Kumar Mangalam Birla8月4日，沃达丰(Vodafone Idea Ltd)辞去了董事长一职。
VIL 8月4日关于高层变动的暗示，是在证券交易所要求该公司澄清6月7日Birla致内阁秘书的信中被广泛报道的，他向政府或政府批准的任何公司免费提供了他在Vodafone Idea的股份。
VIL是由英国电信巨头沃达丰的印度子公司和Birla的Idea Cellular Ltd合并而成的，在过去多年里，VIL必须支付约5039.963亿卢比的法定会费。
然而，政府内部的一些人质疑使用纳税人的钱来救助那些在法律案件悬而未决期间未能提供法定费用的电信公司。
总的来说,电信救济方案一位消息人士称，政府可能会通过暂停拖欠会费、重新定义AGR(调整后总收入)以及削减频谱使用费等方式概述该行业的改革。
在VIL面临生存危机之际，最初普遍预计内阁将于上周采纳该方案，这将为三家私营播放器行业提供喘息机会。
消息人士称，这些措施将是前瞻性的，并将为该行业的改革铺平道路。
消息人士称，正在讨论的措施包括四年的暂停付款，AGR和频谱，重新定义AGR以排除非电信项目，以及削减SUC，并补充说，这些具体措施预计将缓解一些行业参与者面临的现金流问题。
他们表示，正在审议的措施将立即缓解该行业的压力，并补充说，还有一个正在考虑的股权相关转换的组成部分，如果被接受，这将是一种善意的姿态，并帮助企业筹集资金。
沃达丰Idea在其年度报告中指出，该行业面临“不可持续的财务压力”，并希望政府将提供必要的支持，以解决该行业面临的“所有结构性问题”。
截至2021年6月30日，VIL的总债务总额(不包括租赁负债和包括应计但未到期的利息)为19159亿卢比，包括106010亿卢比的延期频谱支付义务和6218亿卢比的调整后总收入(AGR)负债。
行业分析师也对印度电信市场转变为双头垄断的风险发出了警告。
顶级协会COAI最近强烈呼吁削减征税，将拍卖的无线电波所有权的期限翻倍，以及7-10年的频谱付款暂停，以解决该行业的生存问题。
上个月，印度第二大电信公司董事长苏尼尔•米塔尔(Sunil Mittal)Bharti Airtel他曾热情地呼吁提高关税和削减政府税收，以拯救该行业。
米塔尔曾表示，虽然电信行业35%的收入用于税收和征税，但电信公司背负着AGR(调整后总收入)会费和频谱支付的巨额债务。
征收的税太高了电信部门米塔尔表示，印度要真正实现数字化愿景，“对工业的征税和负担需要降低”。

The Union Cabinet<\/a> may consider on Wednesday a moratorium on payment of spectrum dues<\/a> by telecom firms as part of a package for the sector aimed at giving relief to companies such as Vodafone Idea<\/a> that have to pay thousands of crores of rupees in unprovisioned past statutory dues. The relief package<\/a> under consideration includes telecom firms getting an option to convert interest on spectrum dues of the four-year moratorium period<\/a> into government equity, three sources with the knowledge of the development said.
The move comes six weeks after billionaire Kumar Mangalam Birla<\/a> resigned as chairman of beleaguered Vodafone Idea Ltd (VIL) on August 4.
VIL's August 4 intimation about the top-level changes had come on a day stock exchanges seeking clarification from the company over the widely reported June 7 letter of Birla to the Cabinet Secretary offering his stake in Vodafone Idea to the government or any company approved by the government for free.

VIL's August 4 intimation about the top-level changes had come on a day stock exchanges seeking clarification from the company over the widely reported June 7 letter of Birla to the Cabinet Secretary offering his stake in Vodafone Idea to the government or any company approved by the government for free.
<\/div><\/div>VIL, which was created from the merger of British telecom giant Vodafone's India unit and Birla's Idea Cellular Ltd, has to pay about Rs 50,399.63 crore in statutory dues dating back over past many years.
Some within the government are, however, questioning using taxpayer money to bailout telcos who had failed to provision for statutory dues during the pendency of legal cases.
Overall, the telecom relief package<\/a> is likely to outline reforms for the sector by way of granting moratorium on unpaid dues, redefining AGR (Adjusted Gross Revenue) prospectively and cutting Spectrum Usage Charges, a source said.
The package, which initially was widely expected to be taken up by the Cabinet last week, will offer a breather to the three private player industry, at a time when VIL is confronting existential crisis.
Sources said that the measures will be prospective, and will pave the way for reforms in the sector.
Among the measures being discussed are a four-year moratorium on payments, AGR and spectrum, redefinition of AGR to exclude non-telecom items, and a cut in SUC, sources said, adding that these concrete measures are expected to ease the cash flow issues being faced by some players in the industry.

<\/div><\/div>The steps being deliberated will offer immediate relief to the sector, they said adding that there is also a component of equity-related conversion, that is being mulled, which, if accepted, will offer a gesture of goodwill and help companies raise funds.
Vodafone Idea, in its annual report, has flagged the industry's \"unsustainable financial duress\" and hoped that the government would provide the necessary support to address \"all structural issues\" faced by the sector.
The total gross debt (excluding lease liabilities and including interest accrued but not due) as of June 30, 2021 of VIL stood at Rs 1,91,590 crore, comprising of deferred spectrum payment obligations of Rs 1,06,010 crore and adjusted gross revenue (AGR) liability of Rs 62,180 crore that are due to the government.
Industry analysts too have been sounding an alarm over the risks of the Indian telecom market turning into a duopoly.
Apex association COAI recently made a strong pitch for cut in levies, doubling tenure of auctioned radiowave holdings, along with 7-10 year moratorium for spectrum payments, to address viability concerns of the sector.
Last month, Sunil Mittal, Chairman of India's second largest telecom company Bharti Airtel<\/a>, had made a passionate pitch for hike in tariffs and a cut in government levies to save the industry.
Mittal had said while 35 per cent of industry's revenue goes to the government in taxes and levies, telcos are loaded with an extraordinary debt of AGR (Adjusted Gross Revenue) dues and spectrum payments.
Levies are far too high in the telecom sector<\/a>, Mittal had said adding that \"levies and load on industry needs to be brought down\" for India to truly realise its digital vision.<\/div><\/div>
