After Government decision hiking of below Rs.6/- on Diesel may effect on Mobile Tariff increase. Telecom Companies are one of the largest consumers of diesel which they required to power nearly 3.5 lakh towers in the country and force them to increase tariffs following the increase in diesel price.Director General of “Cellular Operators Association of India” (COAI) said that “We cannot absorb this cost and this will be forced automatically some part of it to the consumers”.
