ECB Update

EXTERNAL COMMERCIAL BORROWINGS (ECB) POLICY FOR 3G SPECTRUM ALLOCATION

Dated: 25th June 2013

As per the extant policy, the payment for spectrum allocation may initially be met out of the Rupee resources by the successful bidders, to be refinanced with a long term ECB, under the approval route, subject to the condition that ECB should be raised within 12 months from the date of payment of the final installment to the Government.

On a review it has been decided that ECB window for financing 3G spectrum rupee loans, that are still outstanding in telecom operator’s books of accounts, will be open upto March 31, 2014.

All other aspects of the ECB policy shall remain unchanged.


The directions contained in this circular have been issued under Sections 10(4) and 11(1) of the Foreign Exchange Management Act, 1999 (42 of 1999) and are without prejudice to permissions / approvals, if any, required under any other law.
