Meanwhile, the rating firm ICRA said the major cause for concern for the telecom companies (telcos) is the downward trend of data realisations, which have been declining unilaterally for the last 12 quarters on account of increase in free/discounted offerings by the telcos to increase the data usage as well as increasing competitive pressures.
“In the medium term, the realisations are expected to continue to remain under pressure given the level of competition and the entry of Reliance Jio Infocomm Limited (RJio). However despite falling realizations, the increase in data usage has pushed the data ARPU which has grown from 121 for Q3 FY2015 to Rs 146 for Q3 FY2016 for the ICRA Sample,” the rating firm said in recent report on telecom sector.
At 11:10 AM, the stock was down 2.3% at Rs 340 on the BSE as compared to 0.5% rise in the benchmark index. A combined 2.65 million shares changed hands on the counter on the BSE and NSE so far.
