Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd (BSNL's) is targeted by the cellular operators for its new limited fixed-mobile telephony services. Cellular operators approached TRAI in this regards. These limited fixed-mobile services are an app based services of BSNL. These services amazingly convert your mobile phone into a wireless phone. You can receive the call of your landline phone without touching the receiver of the phone with the help of your mobile.

In its letter to TRAI, COAI has also alleged that the BSNL's service represents evasion and bypass of Interconnect Usage Charges (IUC) in form of termination charges.

"We understand that the new service will use fixed line Caller Line Identification for making calls from mobiles and currently no termination charges are applicable for calls to and from fixed line in terms of TRAI's prevailing IUC regulation," COAI said.

If the service is allowed to continue, other operators with landline number series may also start using the methodology for saving on IUC, leading to major revenue implications, COAI has argued.

"In light of the serious concerns... we request your kind intervention in issuing an immediate direction to BSNL for withdrawing this app-based calling service," COAI has said.

COAI asks TRAI to shut down the services of the BSNL. BSNL is state-owned or you can say it’s a government company. Now, we have to see in whose favor TRAI takes the decision.
