From the headnote

Indian Telegraph Act, 1885 – Licence Agreement granted by the Govt. of India to the Telecom Service Providers – Definition of gross revenue– Telecom sector liberalized in 1994– Licenses issued to the service providers stipulated fixed licence fee payable every year – Since, fixed license fee was very high an option was given to the licensees to migrate from fixed licence fee to revenue sharing fee in 1999 – 15% Adjusted Gross Revenue (AGR) was fixed as license fee which was reduced to 8% in 2013 – Service providers ensured that they do not pay the licence fee based on even an agreed “AGR”…
