Our Bureau New Delhi The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) has introduced more amendments to India’s tele- communication interconnection framework, to be effective from January 1, 2027. Interconnection refers to the technical, opera- tional and commercial arrangements between tele- com operators that enable them to exchange traffic, allowing subscribers of different service providers to communicate seamlessly. For instance, a Reliance Jio or Bharti Airtel customer can communicate seamlessly in an area where only BSNL has a net- work, as they have anarrangement with BSNL. PHASED IMPLEMENTATION The amendment aims to modernise the existing framework by shifting interconnection arrange- ments from the long distance charging area (LDCA) and short distance charging area (SDCA) levels to the licensed service area (LSA) level, TRAI noted. It also said the existing traffic at LDCA/ SDCA-level points of interconnection (PoIs) will be migrated to LSA-level PoIs over three years in a phased manner (from January 1, 2027) with specific year-on-year milestones. e 6 TRAI also said all new interconnections from e 6 1 1 January 1, 2027, must be internet protocol (IP)- 1 1 2 2 based (to transmit voice, data and video) and exist- 2 2 3 ing E1/ TDM-based (methods that transmit multiple 3 signals over a shared path by splitting them into time slots) interconnections must migrate to IP- based interconnection within three years, following graduated traffic targets for each year. IMPROVE CALL QUALITY The shift is expected to improve bandwidth effi- ciency and call quality. For IP-based interconnec- tion, the maximum call-handling capacity of a POI will be determined based on its concurrent session- handling capability and link bandwidth, while main- taining the prescribed quality of service (QoS) standards, TRAI said in the amended rules. For IP-based POIs, capacity planning and aug- mentation will also be based on concurrent session capability and bandwidth, rather than legacy circuit- based models, it said. TRAI also introduced proced- ures and thresholds for requesting additional IP port capacity to maintain QoS. As per the amendments, TRAI has also extended the bank guarantee period and reassessment inter- val from 6 to 12 months. Both private and public sec- tor unit operators must provide guarantees if de- manded, it added. “This revision makes the enforcement of regulat- ory framework more effective, proportionate and commensurate with the nature and seriousness of the contraventions covered under these regula- tions,” TRAI said.
