    WHAT ARE THE PROS AND CONS OF

    TRUSTED TELECOM APPROVAL?


    By  registrationwala 2.0  - January 15, 2022

    Trusted Telecom Approval is a mandatory requirement for telecom companies


    in India. It states can only those entities can provide telecommunication
    entities that have purchased their networking devices from trustworthy
    sources. This blog states the pros and cons of this approval.

    In late 2020, the government of India introduced the National Security Directive in the
    Telecommunication sector to shield the country’s telecom industry from dubious
    networking products. It makes it mandatory for the telecom trusted providers to only
    purchase resources from trusted sources.

    This decision received mixed reactions. Many thought it was unfair for the government to
    ask for such a restrictive requirement. And for some, it provided a way to introduce
    better telecommunication products in India.

    It is not a requirement to state but, the longer those discussions went on, the
    clearer trusted telecom approval in India got with time.

    The truth is, there are both pros and cons to this decision.

    Pros of the introduction of the Trusted Telecom


    Approval
    The trusted telecom approval has its advantages. They are as follows:

    1. Better products in the market: Let us start with the basic one. The introduction of
    this directive has motivated the telecom service providers to use better products. To
    meet their demands, high-quality devices are now available in the market.

    2. Introduction of better services: It is not newsworthy anymore to say that our


    telecom industry is going through a digital transformation. It is a general
    phenomenon. But it is worth noting that the introduction of trusted approval in
    telecom services can pave the way for better services.

    3. Companies will no longer be negligent: For the longest time, the telecom


    companies neglected to pay attention to the compliance requirements. Not anymore.
    The introduction of trusted telecom approval has ensured that companies follow
    India’s telecom regulations at all times.

    Cons of Trusted Approval in Telecom


    There was a reason the trusted telecom portal got mixed reactions. The following points
    assert the genuine complaints people have about this approval.

    1. Overly restrictive measure: The directive seems overly strict to the telecom


    industry in India. It is a sector that has to bear the most brunt of India’s regulatory
    hammer in the past few days (AGR issues). And the new move is no better. It can
    diminish the telecom industry’s desire to evolve.

    2. Chances of favouritism: The notion that the Trusted telecom list will contain the
    names of the trusted sources is not trustworthy. It is no news that the government
    has played favourites in the past. Thus, there is no guarantee that the list will actually
    contain the names of the vendors that the telecom service providers appreciate.

    3. The move has an ambiguous definition: Nowhere in the directive does it state that
    the move will impact the existing telecom service providers. As a result, most are in
    the conundrum about whether to continue to provide services in India.

    Conclusion
    Trusted Approval in Telecom services is the need of the hour. The rising
    telecommunication sector has made sure of that. However, the rules are still a novice,
    and their implementation is dubious. It has created a lot of confusion among the telecom
    service providers. Thus, look at this matter from both perspectives before starting a TSP
    in the current environment.
