Taking a stand in contrast to GSM industry body COAI, Bharti Airtel on Friday asked the department of telecom to liberalise the allocation of numbers to operators.
As per existing guidelines, a new operator is allocated 10 lakh numbers per circle and thereafter, more are allotted based on subscriber additions.
�There is a critical need to reconsider the criteria for allocation of new number series,� the country�s biggest mobile operator by subscribers said. In a letter to DoT secretary MF Farooqui, Airtel said, �The present policy is extremely stringent, resulting in inordinate delays, seriously limiting the customers and operators ability to seek or add customers.�
The Cellular Operators Association of India (COAI), which represents GSM players had recently written to DoT to allocate only 10 lakh numbers per circle to Reliance Jio Infocomm.
