Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) on Friday released the Telecom Consumers Protection (Tenth Amendment) Regulations, 2016 permitting special data vouchers with validity of 365 days.

The present regulatory regime allows Indian telecom service providers (TSP) to offer data services in the form of special tariff vouchers either exclusively or in combination with other tariff items with a maximum permitted validity of 90 days.

TRAI has received requests from telecom operators to offer mobile data-packs with longer validity primarily to address the concern of marginal consumers of wireless Internet who prefer lower denomination data packs with longer validity.
