The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) is expected to soon submit its recommendations on redefining the minimum broadband speed from the current level of 512 kbps to 2 mbps in the country. Earlier, in July 2014, the Department of Telecommunications had revised the minimum broadband speed from 256 kbps to 512 kbps.

Meanwhile, TRAI is also likely to give its recommendation on the issue of right of way for telecom operators for laying optic fibre for wireline services.
