TIL Desk/Business/New Delhi/ Telecom regulator Trai Friday began a industry-wide discussion to review terms and conditions for registration of other service providers (OSPs), offering services such as tele-banking, tele-medicine, tele-education, ecommerce, call centre, and other IT enabled services.
In its latest consultation paper — that was initiated following a specific reference from the telecom department — Trai raises nearly three dozen questions to examine the existing procedure of OSP registration.
Trai has sought stakeholders’ view on multiple aspects ranging from validity of registration to registration charges, and from connectivity and interconnectivity aspects, to security conditions. “Trai has today issued paper on ‘review of terms and conditions for registration of other service providers’ for the consultation of stakeholders,” the regulator said in a statement.
An OSP, it explained, is a company providing application services such as tele-banking, tele-medicine, tele-education, tele-trading, ecommerce, call centre, network operation center and other IT enabled services by using telecom resources or infrastructure provided by licenced telecom operators.
