PM-WANI framework guidelines will encourage more individuals to run Wi-Fi hotspots within their local community, thus creating lakhs of micro-entrepreneurs in India, Broadband India Forum (BIF) said Tuesday. BIF, which represents technology firms like Meta, Google, Amazon, TCS etc, also refuted the arguments given by telcos that PM-WANI was redundant, and it can cause revenue loss. “If India were to establish 50 million PM-WANI hotspots, as targeted, telcos could gain an additional Rs 60,000 crore in revenue annually from bandwidth sales in addition to the benefit they will get by having more broadband users, which they might not reach otherwise,” BIF said in a statement.

Also, the PDOs have been permitted to accept mobile data offload from the telcos, thereby helping ease the congestion on the mobile network.
