DoT to seek legal opinion SC order on Vi’s AGR relief

The department of telecommunications (DoT) will seek legal advice on the Supreme Court recent order allowing the government to revisit Vodafone Idea’s adjusted gross revenue (AGR) dues. While the judgment leaves room for the government to grant relief, it has also created uncertainty over the extent to which such reconsideration can be exercised, given that the apex court has confined its order to the company’s plea on a specific additional demand.
