BSNL calls fresh bids for GSM gear

02 Sep 2010 Evaluate

Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd has once again scrapped its tender for buying GSM gear and has invited fresh bids for supplying equipment to support 5.5 million mobile subscribers. The move is aimed at enabling Chinese vendors to participate in the bidding process. The earlier tender had barred both Huawei and ZTE from putting in their bids due to concerns raised by security agencies.

Alcatel-Lucent, Ericsson and Nokia Siemens Networks had already put in their offers for the same. These companies will now have to submit their bids afresh with the knowledge that the Chinese are likely to play the pricing game. crackcrack
