SC asks Voda and Idea to stop acquiring fresh customers in 3G circles where they don't have 3G license

Followed by Airtel, SC asked Vodafone and Idea also to stop activating fresh 3G connection where they do not have 3G license.

These 3 operators (Airtel, Idea and Voda) were mutually sharing the spectrum in many of the circles. So that they all can acquire 3G customers in all circles evenif they donot own spectrum in all circles. DOT suddenly realised that this is against the breach and asked 3 of them to stop 3G services wherever they do not hold license.

But 3 of them approached HC and obtained a stay order for this order from DOT. But now with the order from SC, operators doesn't have any options left other than to stop operations in the circles where they do not own licenses.
