Idea Cellular moves court against TRAI’s Rs 950 cr fine imposition

TRAI had recommended imposition of Rs 50 crore penalty per circle on Airtel, Vodafone and Idea, which came to Rs 1050 crore each on the first two for their 21 circles and Rs 950 crore on the third for 19 circles.

The regulatory authority was of the view that denial of interconnection by existing operators like Airtel, Idea and Vodafone, to RJIO “appears to be with the ulterior motive to stifle competition and is anti-consumer”.
