Uninor which has lost 21 spectrum licences following the Supreme Court’s February 2 verdict is believed to be planning to plans to move its base stations from its nearly 6,000 tower sites in the four states where it has stopped operations to the nine regions where it is strengthening network over next two months, reports Economic Times.
The move is aimed at cutting costs and beefing up resources before the auction of airwaves which will start in November.
Uninor, has tower management pacts with Viom Networks, Bharti Infratel, Reliance Infratel, Indus and GTL.
"We are in dialogue with the tower operators for reallocation of the tower sites to match our base stations redeployment plan from the scaled down to the scaled-up circles," ET has quoted a spokesman for Uninor as saying. |
