Trai floats paper on 11,500 MHz spectrum auction
The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) on Tuesday released a consultation paper to explore pricing, band plans and conditions for the auction of more than 11,500 MHz of radio waves across 10 spectrum bands identified for mobile telephony and broadband services.
The fresh exercise comes a year after the previous auction in June 2024 drew lukewarm interest. Of the 10,522.35 MHz spectrum put up for sale at a base price of Rs 96,238.45 crore, only 141.40 MHz was sold, generating Rs 11,340.79 crore.
