Trai Asks Tata Teleservices to Refund Unspent Account Balance of Subscribers

After the coming of Reliance Jio into the telecom sector back in 2016, the other telecom operators faced heavy competition and some ceded to it very early on. Some of the names in this data tariff war which could not survive the financial wrath included Aircel and Tata Teleservices. Although Aircel decided to wrap up its operations and slipped into insolvency, Tata Teleservices did not meet such an unfortunate fate as Bharti Airtel agreed to merge its operations with the company and made an acquisition offer. Now, Trai in its latest notice, has directed Tata Teleservices to surrender the spectrum which it is holding in many circles.
