00:00A few days ago, as soon as Jio increased the rate of its plans,

00:04in just a few hours, Airtel and VI's prices were also seen to rise.

00:08After which people got so angry that they started thinking about porting their SIMs.

00:13But who should they port?

00:15Because these are the three companies that are ruling the entire Indian telecom sector.

00:20And in these too, the majority of market share is present only with Jio and Airtel.

00:25Whereas, at one time, the BSNL that led this market is now just a name.

00:30Because if a person even thinks of porting in BSNL,

00:33then its useless network and service does not let people switch.

00:37In this case, you must be thinking that is there any player at this time

00:41who can come to the market and forcefully back Jio and Airtel?

00:45Because for now, as a consumer, we need a new and capable telecom company.

00:51By the way, let me tell you that Aircel still has an unused spectrum in buy circles.

00:56Because of which, the discussion of Aircel's comeback in the market is also on fire.

01:01But the question is that even if a new company comes to the market,

01:05will it be able to stand against Jio and Airtel?

01:08Is BSNL really so powerful that it can face these giants?

01:12And why does this market need more telecom companies?

01:16We will know everything in today's video.

01:20So friends, when Jio was offering us free data and call,

01:23we enjoyed it a lot.

01:25However, later when it removed the free offer and made it a pet,

01:29people adjusted their minds in such a way that it had to happen sometime.

01:33And yes, because of Jio, the other companies present at that time

01:37also had to reduce their rates a lot.

01:40But now suddenly, the increase of up to 25% is

01:43very heavy on a common man's budget.

01:46If Jio increased the price, then how would Airtel and VI stay behind?

01:50Now basically, there is no special place for VI in the market.

01:54But Jio and Airtel have created a duopoly together.

01:58And the situation is that even if they increase the price by 5 times,

02:02we can't do anything.

02:04Yes, if we look at the telecom industry 10 years ago, it was completely different.

02:09Because at that time, Airtel, Vodafone, Idea, Reliance Communications,

02:12Tata Docomo, BSNL, Airtel, Uninor, Videocon, and MTNL

02:17were present in the market.

02:20And they were providing very good service in their area at that time.

02:25And because of so many players, there used to be a fair competition in the market.

02:30But the question arises that 10 years ago,

02:33if there were so many telecom companies in the market,

02:36then why are there only 4 today?

02:38After all, what is the reason for the destruction behind these other companies?

02:42Actually, friends, there are many reasons behind the closure of these companies.

02:47But the first is 2G spectrum scam, which is one of the most popular scams in the country.

02:53Actually, in 2008, DOT, i.e. Department of Telecommunication,

02:57started allocating 2G spectrum.

03:00Now, the telecom minister of that time, A. Raja,

03:03started giving licenses to companies on the policy of first come, first served.

03:09It means that the companies that come first,

03:11they will be given spectrum at a low price.

03:13The effect of this was that the companies that were not eligible for the spectrum,

03:17they also got the license.

03:19And seeing this policy, many new companies also came into the market

03:23who did not have any experience related to the telecom sector.

03:27Later, in the year 2010, when the Controller and Auditor General of India,

03:31i.e. CAG, published a report,

03:34then it was told that how this whole scam happened.

03:38And how the government has lost Rs. 1,76,000 crores due to this scam.

03:44Now, after the report came out,

03:46public and political pressure on the government increased a lot.

03:50People started asking for action on this matter as soon as possible.

03:53After which A. Raja was arrested and the entire case reached the Supreme Court.

03:58After reaching the bottom of the matter, the Supreme Court,

04:01on February 2, 2012, gave its verdict and said that

04:04this allocation is completely unconstitutional,

04:07in which the authorities have done a lot of arbitrariness and misused their power.

04:12And friends, in the same way, 122 spectrum licenses were cancelled,

04:16after which many telecom companies were locked forever.

04:20And among them, UNINOR, UAE's 38 Lakh DB,

04:24Russian company Systema, and MTS, a joint venture of Satyam Group.

04:30But friends, the situation was not as bad as it is today.

04:34Because even after 2G scam, in the telecom sector,

04:37companies like Airtel, Vodafone, Idea, Reliance, Tata, Docomo were present,

04:41due to which people still had multiple options available.

04:45After the Supreme Court's decision,

04:47the government started allocating spectrum again,

04:51and for this, the auction was done in the right way,

04:54which was very competitive.

04:56And because of this, the prices of spectrum were also bid very high.

05:00Now friends, telecom companies had no option other than

05:03buying spectrum at an expensive price,

05:06so they had a lot of financial burden.

05:09Even most of the companies had to take a loan to buy spectrum,

05:13but after this, due to high debt and financial pressure,

05:16telecom companies had to face a lot of problems in running their operations.

05:21Now friends, all these telecom companies were struggling with these problems,

05:25that on 5 September 2016, Jio was launched,

05:28which changed the entire telecom sector.

05:32Because at the time every company was busy providing 3G service,

05:36then Jio spent 3.5 lakh crore rupees

05:39and introduced a high-speed 4G network in India,

05:42that too for free.

05:44And those who were forced to use limited internet in very expensive plans,

05:48and used to spend a whole month in 1-2 GB data,

05:51at that time Jio started giving internet and calling services for free,

05:55that too unlimited.

05:57Now friends, users enjoyed this free offer a lot,

06:00but this gave a big shock to the Indian telecom sector.

06:04Jio kept all its services free for 6 months,

06:08and when the plan was introduced, it was very cheap.

06:11After that, even though they didn't want,

06:13other companies had to reduce their prices.

06:16Due to this strategy of Jio,

06:18Financially weak companies fell into huge debts,

06:21and Tata, Docomo, Aircel and many such companies

06:25had to declare bankruptcy.

06:27Now there were only 5 telecom companies left in the market,

06:30Jio, Airtel, Vodafone, Idea and BSNL.

06:33Now since Airtel was very strong financially,

06:36so it somehow survived.

06:39And today they are the only company

06:41which is standing strong in front of Jio.

06:44In 2018, seeing the financial pressure and high competition,

06:48Vodafone and Idea decided to merge with each other,

06:52and then on 31 August 2018,

06:54a combined entity named Vodafone Idea Limited was created,

06:58which we know today as VI.

07:00And friends, after this merger,

07:02these two companies got some strength,

07:05but only for a short time.

07:07Because in the year 2019,

07:09a court decision was made,

07:11that 58,254 crores were left over from VI.

07:14Actually, in 1999,

07:16the government had made a rule,

07:18under which all telecom companies

07:20have to pay 8% of their revenue as a license fee.

07:24According to the rules,

07:26telecom and non-telecom services

07:29have to pay 8% of their revenue as a license fee.

07:33But friends, telecom companies said

07:36that the license fee should only be on the revenue

07:39earned from the telecom service.

07:41That's why they won't give the money

07:43as a license fee,

07:45which was coming from non-telecom services.

07:47However, friends, in October 2019,

07:49the court decided that

07:51all telecom companies have to follow

07:53the rules that have already been defined.

07:56And friends, the biggest impact of this decision

07:59was on VI,

08:00because it had to pay 58,254 crores to the government,

08:03which was more than the rest of the telecom companies.

08:07However, Jio came in 2016,

08:09so the government had to pay the lowest amount.

08:12Now friends, Jio and Airtel have paid this money,

08:15but they are already in heavy debt.

08:18Arranging such a big amount for VI

08:20had become a very big challenge.

08:23And friends, in return for this remaining amount,

08:25the government named VI's 32% share in February 2023.

08:31In this way, VI, who had come to meet Jio and Airtel,

08:35got stuck in debt.

08:37Because of this, this company became

08:39even more financially weak,

08:41which quickly affected their infrastructure.

08:44Complaints about their services

08:46increased among people,

08:48and finally the company lost its reputation.

08:51Apart from this, the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India,

08:54i.e. Trike, according to VI,

08:56from November 2023 to February 2024,

08:59was losing more than a million subscribers every month.

09:02And it is clear from this that VI

09:04does not seem to clash with Jio and Airtel far and wide.

09:08In this case, is it right to expect from BSNL?

09:11Because the way people are importing their SIM

09:14in BSNL after increasing Jio's price,

09:17many people think that

09:19BSNL will destroy their duopoly.

09:22But to be honest, this is not in BSNL's hands.

09:25Because although BSNL has a very large network base,

09:28but due to its old infrastructure,

09:31we get a very weak signal.

09:33And this is the reason that in today's high-speed internet era,

09:37BSNL fails to give people the experience

09:40that Jio and Airtel are giving.

09:42Apart from this, BSNL is far behind other companies

09:45in network and technology upgrades.

09:48Because where Airtel and Jio have launched 5G,

09:51BSNL is now preparing to bring 4G.

09:54This is because of being a government company,

09:57BSNL gets a lot of financial support from the government,

10:00but despite this, it is not able to improve its services.

10:04Actually, because it is a government company,

10:07BSNL has to face slow decision-making,

10:10lengthy approval process, and many such complexities.

10:13In addition, despite having a large workforce,

10:16the productivity of BSNL employees is very low

10:19compared to private players.

10:21Apart from this, if you have been a BSNL user,

10:24then its poor customer service must have also bothered you a lot.

10:27And friends, due to all these reasons,

10:30people have gone far away from BSNL.

10:33And the BSNL that used to be the market king,

10:36is now fighting for its survival.

10:46In this, one last question remains,

10:49will any new player come to the market

10:51that will be able to end Airtel and Jio's arbitrariness?

10:54Now, some time ago, people thought that

10:57Gautam Adani will do this work,

10:59because during the 2022 spectrum auction,

11:02when Adani Group bought 5G spectrum,

11:04then people thought that Gautam Adani

11:06is now going to take entry in the telecom sector.

11:09But the public's dreams were shattered

11:11when they found out that Adani has bought a very limited spectrum,

11:15whose purpose is not to enter the telecom sector,

11:18but only to make advanced technologies

11:20and better communication systems for their businesses.

11:23In this case, if we remove Adani from the list,

11:26then who is it,

11:27whose telecom sector can have the possibility of entry?

11:30Now, the names of some old players also come up again and again.

11:34Because Airtel and Anil Ambani's reliance communication,

11:37which was shut down after the arrival of Jio,

11:39they still have a lot of unused spectrum left.

11:42In this case, if these players want,

11:44they can return to the market.

11:46But still I don't think

11:48any of these two will come to this competitive market

11:51to struggle again.

11:53Because for this, they will have to go through many challenges,

11:56which is very difficult for any company to come back.

12:00Because if we look at Vodafone and Idea,

12:02then 8 years ago,

12:04these two used to be a very big name in the telecom sector

12:07and they had excellent infrastructure and a large customer base.

12:11In this case, when these two are struggling,

12:13then how can a new company,

12:15which has to start everything from almost zero,

12:17survive?

12:19That's why we can say that

12:21in the telecom sector of India,

12:23the space for the comeback of a new or any old company

12:26has almost run out.

12:28And no new player is currently

12:30seen entering this market.

12:33But friends, if someone still enters,

12:35then we should fully support him.

12:37Because this will end the duopoly of Jio and Airtel,

12:41along with increasing competition in the telecom sector,

12:44which will increase the pressure on other companies

12:46to make their services better

12:48and keep the price reasonable.

12:51What do you have to say about this price hike

12:53of Airtel and Jio and their arbitrariness?

12:56Do tell us by commenting.
