Adani Data Networks applies for universal licence in six circles

Adani Data Networks has applied for universal access services licence (UASL) for six circles where the company has bought spectrum in the recently concluded auction, government officials said.

Since the Adani Enterprises unit was not a licensee when it participated in the spectrum auction, the company must get a licence now to fulfil regulatory requirements.

Getting a universal access services licence will allow Adani Data Networks to offer mobility services in all the six circles if it wants. However, the company denied any plans to enter consumer mobility. “Please note that our intention is not to be in the consumer mobility space,” the Adani Group said in response to ET’s query. The company also gave reference to an earlier statement that said it bought the airwaves for setting up its private networks.
