印度的电信、移动和宽带市场:统计数据和分析India - Telecoms, Mobile and Broadband - Statistics and Analyses |
在过去五年中,印度电信行业一直在努力发展。儘管政府共同努力加强基础设施以实现全民覆盖,但该部门的表现仍然低迷。相反,相对自由的监管环境,反而助长了运营商之间的激烈竞争和价格竞争,降低了ARPU,所以很多运营商只是生存下来,而不是给股东带来正回报,我很担心。
公共和私营企业都被迫向政府寻求救济以避免破产。特别令人担忧的是,企业必须向政府支付大量调整后总收入 (AGR) 供款,并且长期以来一直存在关于将什么计为收入的法律斗争。
本报告分析了印度的电信、移动和宽带市场,包括监管概览和市场数据(截至 2021 年 9 月),以及运营商财务和运营数据(截至 2021 年 12 月)。、TMI(通信成熟度)概述和分析、影响冠状病毒感染 (COVID-19) 和其他最新趋势。

India's telecommunications sector has struggled for growth over the last five years. The sector's lacklustre performance has been in spite of concerted efforts by the government to bolster the underlying infrastructure in a bid to achieve universal coverage. Instead, the country's relatively liberal regulatory environment has encouraged fierce competition and price wars amongst the operators, driving down ARPU to the point where many are now more concerned about their mere survival rather than generating positive returns for their shareholders.
State-owned as well as private operators have been forced to seek redress from the government in order to avoid bankruptcy. One particular area of contention has been the billions owed by the operators to the government in the form of Adjusted Gross Revenue (AGR) dues - usage and licensing fees charged by the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) - that have been the subject of long-standing court battles over what should be counted as revenue.
The government won that battle in the Supreme Court in 2019, but the financial impairment of that decision has pushed a number of telcos - in particular Vodafone Idea - to the brink. Add the impact of the Covid-19 crisis in 2020 and 2021 to the mix, and the government had to come to the industry's rescue by introducing a major reform package in September 2021. Along with changes to the definition of AGR with regard to non-telecom revenue, the package includes a four-year moratorium on AGR dues and spectrum instalments.
Coincidentally, the government has also deferred the spectrum auctions for 5G until later in 2022. Mobile spectrum in India is already in short supply in terms of providing the necessary capacity to reach universal coverage, but the cash-strapped MNOs may not yet be in a sufficiently strong financial position for which to make the 5G spectrum auction viable.
This report includes the regulator's market data to September 2021, telcos' financial and operating data updates to December 2021, Telecom Maturity Index charts and analyses, assessment of the global impact of Covid-19 on the telecoms sector, and other recent market developments.
