Summary:

The Supreme Court (SC) judgment on February 2, 2012 cancelled 122 licenses that were granted after January 2008. This created ripples in the telecom sector. The judgment raised concerns regarding the future developments in the sector as well as on the role and scope of regulatory authorities both in the sector and outside it. In view of the SC indictment regarding functioning of Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI), the issue was how would the TRAI and Department of Telecommunications (DoT) under which the TRAI functioned, maintain their credibility? Since the affected operators had made considerable investment from 2008 when the licenses were allocated until 2012 when they were cancelled, the companies were considering the options they had. Some of the companies such as Uninor and Sistema Shyam which were joint ventures (JV) with foreign companies wanted to explore the options they had under the Bilateral Investment Protection Agreement under which they claimed to be covered.
