The Authority has received references from consumers expressing concerns

regarding the tariff offers of 28 days' validity (or in multiples thereof) by Telecom

Service Providers (TSPs), rather than Tariff offerings having validity for 30 days or

a month. The Authority has noted that, nevertheless, TSPs have been transparent

in disclosing the validity period of the said tariff offers as 28 days etc. and have not

attempted to market the same as monthly tariffs. At the same time, the Authority is

conscious of the need to address consumer concerns and perceptions in this

regard.

2. Accordingly, as per extant practice, a Consultation Paper on "Validity period of

Tariff Offers" was issued by the Authority on 13.05.2021, seeking comments and

counter comments from stakeholders. The details of the comments and counter-

comments received are available on the website www.trai.gov.in. The Authority

has conducted an Open House Discussion (OHD) through video-conferencing

mode on the issues raised in the Consultation Paper.

3. After considering the views of all stakeholders/ participants and analysis of

international practice in this regard, the Authority has decided to insert sub-clauses

(xi) and (xii) in clause 6 of the Telecommunication Tariff Order, 1999, after sub-

clause (x) which are as under:

(xi) Every Telecom Service Provider shall offer at least one Plan Voucher, one

Special Tariff Voucher and one Combo Voucher having a validity of thirty days.

(xii) Every Telecom Service Provider shall offer at least one Plan Voucher, one

Special Tariff Voucher and one Combo Voucher which shall be renewable on the

same date of every month.

4. With the enactment of the amendment, telecom consumers will have more

options to choose service offerings of appropriate validity and duration. This would

also facilitate consumers in making a more informed tariff-related choice. The

Explanatory Memorandum attached with Amendment Order details the reasons and

rationale for the Telecommunication Tariff (Sixty Sixth Amendment) Order, 2022
