Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court, in Civil Appeal No. 936 of 2006, held that the 'Unlimited Cordless' service provided by Reliance Infocomm Ltd. is classified as WLL(M) service under Regulation 2(xxviii) of the Telecommunication Interconnection Usage Charges Regulation, 2003. The Court determined that the service operates beyond the subscriber's premises and thus falls under the definition of limited mobility service, contrary to the appellant's claim of it being limited to one base transceiver station. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the TDSAT's decision and the directives issued by TRAI and DoT.
