Want lower mobile bills? Tell us

Your telephone bills will become cheaper if Finance Minister P Chidambaram accepts the telecom operators' demand for a reduction in levies.

Telecom levies in India are amongst the highest in the world.  The department of telecommunications has been supporting the demand of telecom companies for a simplified tax structure. Operators have urged the government to charge a single levy at a reduced rate to ease their burden.

Currently, telecom operators pay licence fee, spectrum charges, ADC, service tax besides levies like stamp duty, entry tax and octroi charged by the states.
