TRAI just a while ago announced the reduction in ADC – Access Deficit Charges. TRAI is mainly relying on the growth of Incoming international calls for the reduction in ADC. The changes will be effective from April-1st and are as follows,
- No ADC on outgoing ILD calls. Current charges – Rs 0.80 / Minute.
- ADC on incoming calls reduced from Rs 1.60 to Rs 1.0
- ADC on percentage revenue share reduced to 0.75% from existing 1.50% of Adjusted Gross Revenue (AGR) of all service providers
International Calls to and from India have to get cheaper and hopefully the service providers will pass on these benefits to consumers with effective from April-1st itself 🙂
