Telecom Companies are going to increase Tariff Rates of Phone Calls and Internet Data.

Telecom companies are going to increase tariff rates of phone calls and Internet data. They are set to give a big blow to customers. Telecom companies can increase phone calls and data charges from 1 April 2021.

This is revealed by the rating agency ICRA report. However, how much the prices can be increased. No disclosure has been made about this at the moment.

But if there is an increase in phone calls and data charges, then mobile phone calls and using the Internet data will become more expensive than before.

In such a situation, mobile phone users should be ready to increase tariff rates in the next one or two months. Even before the tariff charge has been increased

Before that, last year also some Telecom Companies had increased the tariff. As such, Telecom Companies have suffered less in lockdown.

Although the Telecom Companies did not discontinue the incoming call facility, even after the validity was terminated during the lockdown.

However, data usage has increased due to work from home and online classes. The average revenue per user (ARPU) has improved.

But ARPU's earnings are proving insufficient due to rising expenses. AGR of Telecom Companies repay Rs 1.69 lakh crore.

At the same time, Telecom Companies have to raise funds to invest in the 5G spectrum auction process, which is a major task before the companies.

According to the ICRA report, Telecom Companies are rapidly shifting from 2G to 4G, due to which the income of Telecom Companies is increasing.

According to the report, in the next two years, the revenue of Telecom Companies can grow by 11 to 13 percent while the operating margin will increase by about 38 percent after that.
