DoT amends telecom licences to enable machine-to-machine communications
The Hindu
The DoT has also added a clause for provisioning of audiotex or interactive voice response service (IVRS) as part of telecom licence
The Department of Telecom on January 17 amended telecom licences to enable service providers to roll out machine-to-machine communication — a service which is considered as a key driver of 5G adoption — in the country.
While the DoT had issued M2M guidelines in May 2018, the clause related to their provisioning was not part of the telecom licences.
The DoT in the licence amendment has incorporated M2M with pan-India permit, limited to circle level and district level, according to a circular.
