DoT extends last date for auction application to Feb 25

Previously, the last date was Feb 22

The Department of Telecommunication (DoT) has extended last date for applying for the spectrum auction to February 25.

In an announcement late last evening, DoT made amendments to its notice inviting applications in which it announced new dates in the schedule for auction.

In the previous schedule, last date for submission of application was February 22.

DoT had to issue clarifications on queries raised by potential bidders on auction rules by February 18, but sources said that due to the Supreme Court order of February 15, "DoT had to examine SC order for the impact it may have on present auction process due to which clarifications were delayed".
