A Vodafone Essar-appointed consultancy firm has termed the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India's recommendation on 2G spectrum pricing as flawed and containing basic errors. Vodafone Essar had commissioned Plum Consulting to analyse the Trai recommendations of fixing price for spectrum beyond 6.2MHz.

In a statement, Vodafone said that a report by the firm has referred to the Trai report on the valuation of spectrum in the 1,800MHz band as “flawed and not fit for purpose”. 'The Trai report contains basic errors and omissions that need to be corrected. It is flawed and not fit for the purpose, the firm said.
