SC to telcos: Declare call drops never exceeded 2% threshold

A bench headed by Justice Kurien Joseph while posting the matter for further hearing on March 15 asked the telcos to give an assurance.
The Supreme Court on Thursday asked the telecom operators to give an undertaking that call drops have never exceeded the 2 per cent threshold and no penalty was ever levied on them so far in this regard.
The Trai regulation has mandated them to pay subscribers Re 1 for every call drop they experience on their network, subject to a cap of three call drops a day,
