The Supreme Court on Tuesday asked why telecom operators, who were providing service using cancelled 2G licences, should not pay the price determined in the Nov 12 auction of the spectrum.
The apex court said the operators should pay auction-determined prices from the date when the four months’ period given to them in the February 2G verdict, cancelling the licences, expired. The 2G service providers with scrapped licences were allowed to continue giving service till the government carried out the auction.
