DoT notifies new telecom authorisation norms
The Government has notified rules that operationalise a new authorisation-based framework in the telecom sector, marking a transition from the legacy licensing regime. The Centre has also notified the ‘Telecom eServices Portal’ that enables the digital implementation of the provisions of the Telecom Act.
A set of norms has been notified under the Telecom Act, among them, the Telecommunications (Authorisation for Provision of Main Telecommunication Services) Rules, 2025, that effectively shift entities from the old licence regime to a new authorisation-based framework.
