Satcom airwaves to be assigned administratively: Government in parliament

economictimes.indiatimes.com:

But there could be exceptions to this under the new Telecommunications Act to serve public interest, or to perform government function or where auction of spectrum is not the preferred mode of assignment due to technical or economic reasons, minister of state for communications Pemmasani Chandra Sekhar said Wednesday in a written reply in the Lok Sabha.

Towards this, the telecom department has sent a reference to the telecom regulator for recommendations on the terms and conditions of spectrum assignment, including spectrum pricing, for licensees who want to provide satcom services, while factoring in a level playing field with terrestrial access services, the minister said.

“TRAI is yet to provide their recommendations to DoT (Department of Telecommunications),” he added.
