Satcom spectrum will be allocated administratively but with a price: Jyotiraditya Scindia

Telecom Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia confirmed that satellite spectrum will be allocated administratively, not without cost. TRAI will decide the allocation formula. The Telecom Act 2023 supports administrative allocation, unlike Reliance Jio, favoring auctions. Bharti Airtel’s Sunil Mittal believes the satcom sector should follow telecom rules.
