Bharti Airtel, Vodafone Idea and Tata Teleservices are likely to make the payment for adjusted gross revenue (AGR) dues on Monday to avoid stringent punitive action from the telecom department, according to an official source.
The three companies are jointly liable to pay dues of over Rs 1 lakh crore, but they have informed the DoT of making only partial payment, according to their representatives.
“Airtel, Vodafone Idea and Tata Teleservices have said they will make payments on Monday. DoT will take action after evaluating the amount paid by them,” an official source said.
