31-12-2012: President SNATTA writes letter to CMD for consideration of wage loss case immediately....

31-12-2012:BSNL, MTNL failed to use most of the govt funds..source ( business world)

The government is likely to tighten the estimated expenditure for Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd ( BSNL) and Mahanagar Telephone Nigam Ltd ( MTNL) in the next Budget, as both the state-run telecom operators have failed to utilise most of the funds estimated in the last Budget.
During financial year 2011-12, MTNL was able to use only 14.66 per cent of the Budget estimate, while BSNL reported a better performance, according to a report by the standing committee on information technology
The government should estimate allocations for major projects only if the preliminary works for implementation have been done and clearances are in place. “The projections for the bigger projects are being made unrealistically without analysing the bottlenecks coming in the way of implementation and huge resources are being blocked, particularly when the important projects of the government are starving for funds,” according to the Standing Committee report.

During 2011-12, the government had budgeted an allocation of Rs 19,881.09 crore which was later revised to to Rs 11,878.07 crore. However, till February 2012, the Department of Telecom ( DoT) was only being able to utilise just 41.67 per cent or Rs 4,949.22 crore as both MTNL and BSNL failed to use most of the funds set aside for them.
Both BSNL and MTNL, which are crying for more financial support from the government, might not get everything easily.
For 2012-13, the DoT have been allocated a Plan Outlay of Rs 15,231.39 crore, which includes Rs 10,431.39 crore as internal and external budgetary resources ( IEBR) and Rs 4,800 crore as gross budgetary support ( GBS).
During the 11th five-year plan period, the government had estimated an allocation of Rs 101228.78 crore (Budget Estimate), which was later reduced to Rs 75,556.45 crore (Revised Estimate) for BSNL and MTNL. AT the end of the 11th Five-year plan, the state-run telecom operators have failed to use more than 50 per cent of the Budget Estimates, with a reported utilisation of Rs 50,003.68 crore, according to the Standing Committee report.
In IEBR, the government had allocated Rs 94664.78 crore (Budget Estimate), the expenditure reported to be ' 46821.97 crore during the 11th Five-year Plan. Under GBS, the allocation was at Rs 6,564 crore (Budget Estimate) while the utilisation stood at Rs 3,181.71 crore during the five years.
The Committee, in its report, has stated that BSNL’s delay in completion of the procurements and delay in completion of the various projects are among the main reasons for the under utilisation. Major delayed projects include Defence Service Network, A&N project have been cited.
Not only that there are serious problems with BSNl and MTNL, the projections for the bigger projects are being made unrealistically which blocked resources, the Standing Committee has pointed out.
Considering MTNL’s current cash flow constrains, the Committee has also suggested that the government should “continuously review” its spending ensuing that funds are being used “judiciously”.
BSNL, which had a revised IEBR of Rs 65,218 crore during the 11th Five-year plan, had used about 66 per cent at Rs 42947 crore during the five years. BSNL does not receive any GBS from the government.
The DoT has informed the Standing Committee that the poor utilisation was mainly because of “fiercely competitive telecom sector, delay in projects due to unavoidable circumstances (for MTNL), and delay in tender finalization (for BSNL)....business world

25-11-2012: BSNL, MTNL continue losses, no hope in this fiscal year.....Economic times


NEW DELHI: State-owned telcosBSNL and MTNL, will not see any turnaround this fiscal and will continue to bleed with falling revenues and wider losses, the companies indicated in their performance reviews withtelecom minister KapilSibal on November 16.
 
MTNL, which operates in Delhi and Mumbai, has told Sibal that its losses for the first six months this fiscal has increased to Rs 2,153 crore, up 26 per cent, when compared to a loss of Rs 1,714 crore for the six months ended September 2011.
Unlisted BSNL, in its presentation has said its estimates indicate that its revenues for the year-ended March 2013 would be around Rs 25,384 crore, down 9 per cent as against Rs 27,944 crore during 2011-12.

ET reviewed a copy of the presentations made by both public sector communication undertakings to Sibal.
This is despite a series of steps that both these companies have put in place recently, including monetising real estate assets, to arrest the downward spiral in revenues and profits. For the year-ended March 2012,MTNL and BSNL had posted losses of Rs 4,108 crore and Rs 8,851 crore, respectively.
MTNL chairman and MD AK Garg said the company's losses at the end of this fiscal may be similar to that of last year, and added that the financials would improve significantly if the government refunds the Rs 4,600 crore it had paid up for fourth generation (4G) airwaves before March next year.
He also dismissed market buzz that the debt-laden company would soon run out of finances to meet employee salaries, even as he admitted that the situation was 'tough but manageable'.
BSNL, once a monopoly in domestic telephony, has been deteriorating in financial performance over the years as it could not expand on time. Its business plans were thwarted at various levels of bureaucracy under influence from different quarters.
It could not compete with the nimble-footed private mobile phone firms such as Bharti Airtel which were taking decisions quickly. The telco's chairman and MD, RK Upadhyay, pointed out that the company had placed its first orders for mobile equipment since 2007 only recently, and added that more tenders for expanding its cellular networks would be issued soon, the results of which would reflect in the next financial year.
Upadhyay further said that the company had taken a slew of steps to increase revenues including hiving off its towers into a separate company, a move that BSNL estimates will bring in Rs 1,600 crore over the next five years, as well as leasing its CDMA network, and rolling out WiFi networks or hotspots across the country, which it estimates will being in about Rs 500 crore in the first year and double this from the second year onwards.
"All these will begin to show only from next year. We have also simplified the procurement procedures for equipment. Once the orders are placed, our numbers will improve," he added. 
Upadhyay also added that the current fiscal would be about 'tightening spends and increasing productivity. His presentation to Sibal indicates some amount of success on these fronts as BSNL has reported growth in all key revenue parameters in the first seven months to October 2012.
For instance, wireless revenue, enterprise sales, broadband sales and outgoing minutes of usage during this period have increased by 6.65 per cent, 26.8 per cent, 8.3 per cent and 4.14 per cent, respectively, compared to the earlier year. Even VLR or 'visitors location register' numbers, that indicate the number of active users on a network, has grown 4.33 per cent during the period under review.

MTNL's case, however, offers little hope as the company has suffered higher revenue losses during the first six months to September 2012 compared to the year-ago period. Basic service revenue losses during this period widened to Rs 1,183.8 crore from Rs 1,004.9 crore, while mobile revenue losses widened over 93 per cent to Rs 324.7 crore.

08-11-2012: BSNL added highest customer in Sept 2012... Telecom industry loses 1.87 million subscribers in September due to large-scale disconnection .(Cilck here)..ET News

NEW DELHI: The country's telecom subscriber base declined by 1.87 million in September due to large-scale disconnection by some operators, taking the total subscriber base to 937.7 million, sector regulator Trai said. 

The drop in subscribers in September comes after the overall user base dipped by 0.56 per cent to 939.57 million in August. 

"The number of telephone subscribers in India decreased to 937.70 million at the end of September, 2012 from 939.57 million at the end of August 2012, thereby registering a monthly growth rate of -0.20 per cent," Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (Trai) said in a statement. 

Total wireless subscriber or mobile phone user base decreased by 0.19 per cent to 906.62 million at the end of September 2012 from 908.36 million in August 2012.

Trai attributed the decline in subscriber base "to large scale disconnection by some of the service providers." 

State-run BSNL emerged as market leader in new subscribers addition during the month amid the declining trend of subscriber base. 

"I am unable to recall if BSNL ever lead market in terms of new subscriber additions. Addition of highest number of customers by BSNL in September acknowledges hard work of BSNL employees and improvement in the network," BSNL Chairman and Managing Director R K Upadhyay told PTI.

07-11-2012: ITS repatriation ......FROM SNEA website....)


Status on ITS repatriation case at Hon Delhi HC:

At the very outset, ASG, representing UOI, made submission before the Hon Bench that a proposal to repatriate unabsorbed ITS from BSNL/MTNL progressively within a time span of 10 years is under the consideration of Group of secretaries and that it will be very shortly sent to the Union Cabinet. On this submission of ASG, Hon Bench observed that "We are not concerned with what cabinet is to decide and the 10 year time period is absurd"Our Councel informed the Hon Bench that last time the plea of BSNL / MTNL to grant extension of 25 months was rejected by the Bench and this time they are asking time for 10 years. At this the Hon Bench observed“even now we will reject it”.

Counsel for the respondents (ITS) submitted that they have to be formally relieved from BSNL/MTNL immediately ending “deemed deputation” and thereafter they can be taken back to BSNL/MTNL on “deputation” which is legal. This was strongly opposed by our counsel quoting the DOP&T OM which strictly forbids such deputation. Hon Court also observed that this is nothing but continuation of the present situation, thereby putting an end the possibility of their entry through back door deputation.

Finally Hon Bench directed Counsel for UOI, BSNL/MTNL to relieve all unabsorbed ITS by 15th Dec failing which UOI should submit a detailed proposal. The case is posted for 18th Dec:’12.

07-11-2012: a courtsey from the website of BSNLEU.....


"""BSNLEU condemns the mischief 
“Pls give some more amount to EU to stop asking for LICE” 
The above entry is made on the blogspot of Shri Kabeerdas (kabeerdasjtoblogspot.in). BSNLEU severely condemns this. On 05.08.2012 the officiating JTOs gave a donation of Rs.55,000/- to the GS, BSNLEU, in the Branch Secretaries convention of BSNLEU, held at Vijayawada, towards BSNLEU building fund. This news was placed on BSNLEU website on 06.08.2012. The donation is accepted, since the donors are members of BSNLEU. However, had the donation been given with the hidden agenda to make BSNLEU to stop the JTO LICE, then we will return the donation. Members of BSNLEU have donated Rs.2 crore for building fund. As such, BSNLEU does not require donations from any one with hidden agenda. BSNLEU will take all out efforts to ensure the immediate holding of the JTO LICE. At the same time it will also leave no stone unturned to ensure the personal upgradation of the officiating JTOs. There will not be any compromise in this."""

7-10-2012: thanks to BSNLEU for their consideration of our issues to be adopted in agenda of UNITED FORUM.....
