Vi still in talks with govt on AGR dues after Supreme court’s dismissal of plea

Vodafone Idea (Vi) on Monday said it is actively engaging with the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) to seek relief from its substantial adjusted gross revenue (AGR) dues.

This statement follows the Supreme Court’s dismissal of Vi’s petition requesting a waiver of interest, penalties, and other associated charges on these dues. During a post-Q4 earnings call, Vi CEO Akshaya Moondra said the government should not be constrained in any way from offering relief if it chooses to do so.
