Airtel, Vodafone, Jio submit call traffic details to Trai

Mobile operators, including Bharti Airtel, Vodafone and Reliance Jio, have submitted call traffic data to Trai, a move that will enable the regulator to look at the pattern, including asymmetric traffic on networks, as part of its consultation on inter-connection usage charges. "The data pertaining to incoming and outgoing minutes have been submitted by the operators - Bharti Airtel, Vodafone, Reliance Jio, BSNL and MTNL.

 

The data will enable Trai to examine asymmetry of traffic in the context of the IUC consultation paper that has been floated recently," sources told PTI. Although the details submitted by the five operators pertain to call traffic patterns, it is unlikely to be directly relevant to the inter-connect dispute that is currently playing out in the telecom sector where incumbent operators have clashed with Reliance Jio for unleashing "unprecedented asymmetry of traffic". This is because the data pertain to July when the new entrant was still in a test phase, the sources added.
