NEW DELHI: The Telecom Regulatory
Authority of India (TRAI) has issued a tariff order for commercial interoperability of Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) offered by the direct-to-home (DTH) operators to their subscribers. As per the tariff order, DTH operators have to make transparent and upfront declaration of installation & activation charges which shall not exceed Rs 450. They will have to make a transparent price declaration of all types of CPEs to enable a subscriber to make an informed choice. DTH operators have to mandatorily offer an outright purchase scheme called Standard Scheme for all types of CPEs on standalone basis. They may offer additional schemes, including bundled and rental schemes. In the rental schemes, DTH operators can charge a specified one-time interest free refundable security deposit, installation & activation charges from the subscriber during enrolment followed by specified monthly rental charges. No repair / maintenance charges are permissible from such subscribers. DTH operators shall cater for free maintenance and repairs of CPEs for three years after installation/activation. In case of outright purchase and hire purchase schemes, DTH operators may levy visitation charges not exceeding Rs 250 per visit after the warranty period has elapsed.
