New Delhi: The telecom regulator Wednesday said it will float a consultation paper on mobile value-added services in April and will give its recommendations by the end of June. "TRAI (Telecom Regulatory Authority of India) will come out with a consultation paper on the mobile value-added services in April," TRAI chairman J.S. Sarma said at a meeting on the National Telecom Policy (NTP) 2011 here. "By the end of June, it will give recommendations on value-added services," he added. Sarma also said that TRAI will announce recommendations on telecom infrastructure policies to encourage telecom equipment manufacturing in the country.
