Telcos fear surge of 'pseudo-TSPS' due to private 5G
Business Standard|November 26, 2022
Arguing that private enterprises from non-telecom backgrounds would not have the financial and technical know-how to set up private 5G networks, telecom service providers (TSPS) believe a new category of 'pseudo-TSPS' may come up. They would provide wet leasing of installation and maintenance of private network service.

Telcos fear surge of 'pseudo-TSPS' due to private 5G

The three TSPS - Reliance Jio, Bharti Airtel and Vodafone Idea through industry body Cellular Operators Association of India (COAI), are pushing the government not to allocate direct spectrum to private 5G networks. COAI functionaries said the issue has been brought up in its discussions with the government. These companies will offer a build-operate-wet ease lel to private enterprises, effectively cornering this lucrative market, (COAI) director-general SP Kochhar said.

"We are worried about the ecosystem. For TSPS, the profits in the future are mainly going to come from enterprises. If that is taken over by someone else, then we get nothing," he stressed.
