TRAI has asked DoT not to issue directives disallowing differential tariffs for intra-network calls. DoT had earlier planned to issue a directive asking all telecom operators to withdraw tariff schemes discriminating between calls terminating on the network of the same operator and calls terminating on other networks. TRAI, however, disagreed and pointed out that the various tariff plans offered by operators are consumer friendly and enhance competition, and should not be interfered with.
