A Review of Reforms in the Indian Telecommunications Sector

Author(s) Chanakya Rao Korati, Moksh Soni, Vaibhav Chopra
Country India
Abstract People call each other on the phone and look things up on Google all the time. These actions have become part and parcel of everyday life (Crabtree et al, 2003; Dutt, 2012). However, in this very country, earlier, one had to book calls in advance and wait by the phone for hours to hear it ring, and that was if they were affluent enough to afford one in the first place (Vohra, 2018). That time is now long past. Now, India is the 3rd cheapest country in the world for data (Das, 2023). As a result, it also has the fastest growing customer base for internet consumption and mobile handles. In 2012, commercial networks covered 83% of the country (Shrinivasan, 2012). The number has only increased after 5G and the introduction of single-window clearances at various state Department(s) of Telecommunications, even mulling it over at a national level. However, this change didn’t happen overnight. It is the fruit of the labour(s) of many different politicians, industrialists, bureaucrats, engineers, and of course, the people of India over decades. Neither is everything all well; the country is plagued with scams, misappropriations of funds, political favouritism, inefficiency in government, and a growing monopoly. This article traces the reforms introduced in the telecommunications sector, their impact, their consequences, and gauge what the future may hold for the industry.
