Vodafone Idea (Vi) is asking the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) to let it hold on to its soon-to-expire 4G spectrum, since there aren't any auctions coming up.
With a big chunk of its 4G spectrum due for renewal this December, and another portion due in March 2027, Vi's CEO, Abhijit Kishore, says the company is focused on making sure users in places like Assam and Mumbai don't face dropped connections.
