Vodafone described TRAI's decision as regressive and said that the biggest advantage of this is that it is only going to be a new company. Although he did not take Geo directly in the name. At the same time, Airtel alleged that TRAI had fixed the new IUC rate with 'completely opaque' ways. The new telecom firm Reliance Jio has denied the allegations that the decision of the reduction in mobile interconnect usage fee (IUC) will only benefit him. The company says that the cost of voice calls has been reduced to a part of a single penny and the benefit should be to the customers.
