Vodafone Idea (Vi), the third-largest telecom operator in the country, can finally go ahead with converting the interest dues into equity for the government. This is a big development for the telco. In a listing at the stock exchanges, the telco said that it has received the go-ahead from the Ministry of Communications (MoC) to convert the interest dues related to the deferred amount from the spectrum auction instalments and AGR (adjusted gross revenue) dues.
