NBTC flexibility over bid application deadline welcomed by dtac

Total Access Communication, commonly known as dtac, said on Monday that it welcomed the flexibility given by the National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC) to extend the submission time-line for 900MHz spectrum bid applications to October 16, in the event there is no bid application on October 9.



 


The mobile-service provider will therefore use the full time-line to continue its feasibility study. 
The study will be submitted to the board of directors for approval, in line with dtac’s internal process and governance procedures, it said. 
The listed company is confident that all necessary steps will be completed for dtac to take the final decision within the NBTC’s submission deadline of October 16.
Rajiv Bawa, the company’s chief corporate affairs and business development officer, said: “We are in the process of a comprehensive feasibility study of the criteria and procedures for the licence. This ensures that our final decision benefits all stakeholders, including shareholders, customers and employees, in the long term. 
“Our process is key to maintaining the company’s competitive edge and long-term business value. dtac wishes to thank the NBTC for their understanding and support with this process.”
