Download or read book Telecom Sector Regulation in India written by Maruthi P. Tangirala and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2019-03-13 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book traces important legal and regulatory developments in the first two decades since the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) was established, along with its political and economic aspects. It narrates the story of the institutional progress of TRAI and its influence on the growth of India’s telecom sector. The telecom revolution was a game changer in post-liberalization India, a country today home to the second largest subscriber base in the world– more people have access to mobile phones than toilets. Its rapid, relentless growth has created new possibilities and challenges, including a robust regulatory policy. This book, the first comprehensive survey of TRAI’s progress, examines the salient developments in regulation of the Indian telecom sector. It analyses, at the macro-institutional level, the norms and rules reconstituted over time; at the institutional level, the impact of important court judgments, relevant telecom case law (including the 2G judgment and Adjusted Gross Revenue-related cases), and the ‘judicialization’ of regulatory governance; and, at the micro-institutional level, the mechanisms of governance of TRAI and the way its functioning has affected the alignment of incentives in the regulatory space. It provides an overview of the regulatory framework and the context in which the telecom sector was deregulated, the structure of internal governance, and issues in telecom licensing and spectrum allotment. The book combines academic rigour and empirical research with a practitioner’s perspective of the unfolding events. It will interest students and researchers of economics, law, public policy, communications technology, and ICT policy and regulation, as well as telecom sector professionals, service providers, academic experts, policymakers, and think tanks.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Telecommunications Industry in India represents the first comprehensive study of a state-run enterprise in the telecommunications industry. The study traces over a period of half a century (1948-2009) the growth and decline of Indian Telephone Industries (ITI). At the heart of the monograph stands one central interrogation: How does the socio-technical system of production in a state-controlled firm shape the relations linking the four main actors: the state, management, union and workers? The original contribution of this book lies in combining business history and labour history within a single conceptual framework. The author evaluates the broader conclusions about the telecommunications industry and public sector through the lens of an individual firm to arrive at a more nuanced understanding of the dynamics of change in the globalizing Indian economy. The work is well in command of the literature on the global business history counterparts of ITI in the telecommunications industry. It is further strengthened by the use of French material on the subject which is now accessible for the first time in English.

Download or read book Empire and Post Empire Telecommunications in India written by Pradip Ninan Thomas and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-12-31 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Telecommunications was vital to the imperial project and connecting India—the jewel in the British crown—was a key priority. However, intercolonial rivalries outside and within India as well as contestations between private and public ownership of telecommunications made that task difficult. The author explores these differences and ties the history of telegraph, cable, and wireless in British India to the evolving story of telecommunications in post-Independence India. This book examines the role of the telegraph, oceanic cables, and the wireless in the context of the political economy and compulsions of Empire to control global flows of communications. It argues that history is absolutely critical to understanding the present, and the imprint of the past continues to shape the Indian state’s engagements with telecommunications. This volume undertakes the project of bridging the gap between past and present, and highlighting a narrative of time- and space-specific innovation and growth tempered by political circumstances, geopolitical developments, and economic compulsions.

It has remained stagnant under the government monopoly for many decades. Indian telecommunication industry has become a classical example of combination of government policies, innovation and new technology. There have been many events of mergers and acquisitions in Indian telecommunication industry in the last decade. Foreign investors and major players of telecom sector see India as one of the fastest growing telecom industry of the world. Over the last decade, many reforms have been introduced by the government, which have changed the scenario of telecom industry of India. In telecom sector, mergers and acquisition has been increasing to a great extent. Mergers and acquisitions in telecommunication industry can be driven by the development of new technology. The deregulation of telecom industry tempts the firms to offer bundle of new products and services to customers. Ongoing convergence of cable and telecom industries also tempts telecom firms to innovate products and services (Sanjoy Banka, 2006). In this way, the acquisition of products and services has become a profitable progress for telecom firms. In the world, telecommunication industry is the most developing and profitable industries of the world. Telecom sector has been considered as the most indispensible industries of the world in service sector. Different forms of communication media such as mobile phones, land line phones and internet broadband services are dealt in the telecommunication industry (Sanjoy Banka, 2006). In the recent past, swing of mergers and acquisition has been observed in the telecom sector of the world. Because of its immense importance, the proposed research is going to explore mergers and acquisitions in the telecom sector of India. 1.2 Aims and Objectives The aim of the proposed research is: To explore the impact of mergers and acquisitions on the performance of telecom firms in India The objectives of the proposed research are as follows: • To analyze the factors that lead to mergers and acquisitions in the telecom industry of India • To study the nature of mergers and acquisitions in the telecom industry of India • To determine the impact of mergers and acquisitions on the performance of telecom companies • To analyze the difficulties faced by the telecom companies while pursuing mergers and acquisitions
Download or read book Telecommunications Reform in India written by Rafiq Dossani and published by Praeger. This book was released on 2002-05-30 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Telecommunications reform in India is complete, according to policymakers there. They have done everything correctly in their efforts to transform a state-run monopoly into an independently regulated sector in which private companies compete with government-owned and operated providers. And yet, India lags behind nations whose telecom sectors provided comparable levels of service a decade ago. What went wrong? Dossani and his contributors argue that the classic textbook solutions are insufficient to produce a healthy telecom industry in India, which needs to improve regulatory design, introduce competition in a single phase instead of gradually, implement innovative funding models, and choose appropriate technologies in order to improve access to universal service. Containing valuable lessons for the telecommunications industries in Mexico, Indonesia, the Philippines, and other countries taking formerly state-run industries private, this book constitutes a valuable resource for policymakers, regulators, practitioners, scholars, and overseas investors. Policymakers and regulators will learn that cookie-cutter solutions derived from rich-country experience do not always work in countries that are poor, yet democratic and pro-market. Practitioners will be interested in the sections on universal service, technology convergence, and the implications for reducing costs and improving the quality of both basic telephone services and IT-enabled services. In particular, Indian technology workers in Silicon Valley should find this book indispensable. Investors will gain valuable knowledge about this potentially huge market. Scholars' preconceived ideas may be nudged aside as their knowledge base is enhanced and their research agenda expanded. Whereas some of the book's conclusions support current thinking, such as the need to begin a sequence of reform with a regulatory system in place and the need for dominant-carrier regulation, other conclusions challenge the conventional wisdom. Contributors make a cogent case for reformulating the balance of power between regulators and policymakers, introducing competition at the local level rather than through large franchises, and replacing public subsidies with cross-subsidies of universal service. Provides a multidisciplinary approach to understanding the problems of telecommunications reform in all their complexity.
