The Telecom Commission has made a decision to allow mobile phone companies to share spectrum, but has limited this facility to 2G airwaves alone as the 2G spectrum is largely used for offering voice services across the country.
For this the Telecom Commission has introduced some rules to govern spectrum sharing. First, only those operators that have airwaves in a particular region can share it. Suppose Uninor or Tata Teleservices which does not have 2G spectrums in Delhi, cannot share airwaves with any other operator that has radio frequencies here and launch GSM-based cellular services.
