Redressal of RoW policy, backhaul constraints, industry debt to realise India’s 5G ambition: Deloitte

NEW DELHI: Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Limited, or Deloitte, a professional services firm believes that the existing challenges such as the lack of a uniform Right-of-way (RoW) policy and limited backhaul as well as constrained spending due to debt pressures need redressal in realising the fifth generation or 5G potential.

“There are a plethora of relevant use cases for 5G going mainstream in the year to come, but few key challenges such as RoW and lack of uniform policy framework, limited giga-backhauling to meet future requirements, industry crippling under debt margin pressure constrained on capital expenditure, would need to be overcome for realising it,” Sathish Gopalaiah, Partner, Deloitte India said.
