Economic Times
Telecom operators cannot increase tariffs of subscriber plans for six months from the enrolment date, TRAI said in its Consumers' Handbook on Telecommunications released on May 17. However, for any tariff plan, the operator is free to reduce tariffs at any time but "no tariff item in a tariff plan can be increased by the service provider," it added. "The subscriber shall be free to choose any other tariff plan, even during the said six months period. All requests for change of plan shall be accepted and implemented immediately or from the next billing cycle," TRAI said.
