This is how much Reliance Communications needs to pay to save chairman Anil Ambani from going to jail

KOLKATA: Reliance Communications (RCom), which must pay Rs 453 crore to Ericsson by Tuesday to save chairman Anil Ambani from a Supreme Court-ordered jail term, is facing more legal woes over pending payment.
An arbitral tribunal has asked the telecom operator and a subsidiary to furnish bank guarantees totalling Rs 16.43 crore to Bharti Infratel on a dispute over terminating contracts with the tower firm in 11 telecom zones. In a separate development, Bharat Sanchar Nigam is set to approach the bankruptcy court to recover some Rs 700 crore in dues.
A BSNL spokesperson said it would approach the National Company Law Tribunal this week. A government official said the arrears were towards interconnect charges — over calls made from RCom’s network to phones on BSNL’s network.
