COAI说点秘书安苏普拉卡什在当天早些时候举行的一次会议上回顾了防备的行业,满足了公众的要求和保证解决问题与网络有关。
点指出,密切与行业领导合作,减少“错误的”基站被从大约800前检疫近290人。
“这是总数的大约22个十万的bts(基本收发站),在全国范围内。同样,的数量光纤削减了从每天大约100前检疫削减大约19纤维在过去15天的检疫,”马修斯说。
根据行业,点也保证跟进把销售税从支付许可费(低频)和频谱使用费用(往下),他们不是一个服务。
这个行业也敦促免除销售税的征收执照费,往下和支付拍卖获得的频谱。
电信玩家也寻求豁免的服务税低频/付款等电信运营商的数量符合最高法院的命令。

<\/figure>New Delhi: The government is expected to take a call on activation of new SIMs during lockdown or curfew, after reviewing security-related issues that may arise in the process, telecom industry body COAI<\/a> said on Monday. Cellular Operators Association of India (COAI) Director General Rajan Mathews<\/a> said the industry has been able to resolve network issues to the minimal with support of the government. \"The DoT<\/a> (Department of Telecommunications) will take a call on SIM activation<\/a> after reviewing security-related issues around it because the SIM will have to be delivered on the doorstep during the lockdown,\" Mathews said.
COAI said that DoT Secretary Anshu Prakash in a meeting held earlier in the day reviewed preparedness of the industry to meet requirements of the public and assured to resolve issues related to the network.
<\/div><\/div>\"In taking stock of the performance of the networks over the past weeks of the quarantine, note was taken of the substantial support provided by the DoT to the industry to meet the challenges of the increased traffic load on the networks and the logistical issues involved in maintaining the uptime of the networks,\" Mathews said.
The DoT noted that close working with industry led to reduction of \"faulty\" base stations were brought down from about 800 from before the quarantine to nearly 290.
\"This was out of a total number of approximately 22 lakh BTSs (base transceiver station), nationwide. Similarly, the number of optical fibre<\/a> cuts were reduced from approximately 100 per day from before the quarantine to approximately 19 fibre cuts during the past 15 days of the quarantine,\" Mathews said.
According to the industry, DoT has also assured to follow up on removing GST from payment of licence fees (LF) and spectrum usage charges (SUC) as they are not a service.
The industry has also urged to exempt the levy of GST on licence fees, SUC and payment of spectrum acquired in auctions.
Telecom players have also sought exemption of service tax on the amount of LF\/SUC payable by telecom operators in compliance with the Supreme Court order.
