The Department of Telecommunications (DoT) has given the all clear to Virgin Mobile’s operations in India, reiterating that it does not consider the company’s services that of a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO), Indian news source The Economic Times is reporting.
The DoT previously ruled that Virgin could only be considered a franchisee of Tata Teleservices in March 2008, a decision supported by the Telecoms Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI); GSM operators, led by the Cellular Operators Association of India (COAI), contended that Virgin was offering a full range of mobile services in the same manner as a full licence holder. It is understood the latest ruling comes after consideration of Virgin’s advertisements, tariffs and services on 20 August.
