Bharti approaches TDSAT against Tata over termination charges

Bharti Airtel moved to TDSAT against Tata Teleservices over the issue of unpaid termination charges of SMSes. While acting, TDSAT issued notice to TTSL and directed it to file its reply within two weeks.
The tribunal has also asked Bharti Airtel to file rejoinder over the reply filed by TTSL within a week and directed to list the matter on November 24 for an interim order. 

Termination charges are paid by an operator from whose network calls or SMSes originate to the one on whose network these communications end. These charges impact tariffs. 
During the proceedings, counsel appearing for Bharti Airtel alleged that TTSL was not paying their due SMS termination charges from 2009 despite several reminders. 
On the other hand, TTSL’s Counsel Ramji Srinivasan had said there was a system of ‘‘bill and keep’’ in the sector and every player was following that norms.
