Spectrum trading 

(vi) 

Should we open up the spectrum market for spectrum trading? If 

yes, what should be the time frame for doing so? 

(vii) 

What are the pre requisites to adopting spectrum trading? 

Mergers & Acquisitions 

(viii)  Whether we should specify a cap higher than 2 X 15 MHz for 

Metros and Category  A  service area and 2 X 12.4 MHz for 

Category  B  and  C  service area in case of M&As or should it be 

retained? 

(ix) 

In case, IMT 2000 is considered as a continuum of 2G Services, is 

there a need to have a cap higher than that without IMT 2000 

services? Should there be individual caps on 2G and 3G spectrum 

or a combined cap? 

(x) 

In case of M&As where the merged entity gets spectrum exceeding 

the spectrum cap, what should be the time frame in which the 

service provider be required to surrender the additional spectrum?
