Mukesh Ambani-led Reliance Industries on Friday agreed to acquire Infotel for Rs 4,800 crore (Rs 48 billion) in a deal that values the Mahendra Nahata group internet service provider at about Rs 5,000 crore (Rs 50 billion).
Leading telecom players like RCom, Tatas, Vodafone and Idea Cellular failed to bag a single circle for Broadband services, saying the BWA spectrum price was too high to make a viable business case.
Reliance Jio Infocomm has moved the Bombay High Court seeking approval for amalgamating its long distance services arm Infotel with itself.
DoT and the company have not done anything that breached the guidelines mentioned in the notice inviting applications for the auction of the BWA spectrum in 2010, it stated in a reply to CAG's draft audit report.
The company will wait for sizeable user base for better valuation.
