2.India has 60 Mhz of 3G spectrum available. The auction will take place in the 2.1 Ghz band.
3.Government has set a base price of Rs 2,020 crore (Rs 20.20 billion) for each bid for a pan-India license. Initially, there will be three to five operators to sell the 3G services, including state run BSNL and MTNL (BSNL CMD Kuldeep Goyal said the PSUs should be able start the 3G service in six months. MTNL shares soared 3.76 per cent to Rs 107.70 on the priority treatment.)
4.any licensed telecom operator can bid for 3G spectrum and the radio waves will be auctioned in 5-10 blocks depending on the availability. Each successful bidder will be allocated only one block in a service area.
5.spectrum will be auctioned in the 450 Mhz, 800 Mhz band for EVDO (for CDMA players) and in 1900 band when it is available.
6.According to the reserve price for 3G spectrum fixed by the government, 2x5 Mhz block of spectrum for Mumbai, Delhi and category-A cities would cost Rs 160 crore (Rs 1.60 billion), for Kolkata and category-B Rs 80 crore (Rs 800 million)and category-C Rs 30 crore (Rs 300 million).
7.There are strict roll out obligations for 3G operators to discourage hoarding of spectrum. If the licensee does not achieve the roll out obligations, even after being given one year to do so, would have to make a payment of 2.5 per cent of its successful auction bid per quarter. And after that also if it does not roll out service, then its spectrum will be withdrawn.

INDIA’S 300-million mobile subscribers have reasons to cheer. From mid-2009, they will be able to access third-generation (3G) services such as high-speed internet, interactive gaming and instant downloads of movies, video clips and music on their mobile phones.
And that’s not all. They will also have the option to change their telecom operator without having to change their mobile numbers.
After nearly two years of debate and controversy , the government on Friday finally announced its plans for a global auction of 3G radio frequencies, a move that could fetch it billions of dollars. The government also announced the introduction of mobile number portability (MNP) as well as a separate auction for broadband wireless access (BWA) services spectrum, popularly called WiMAX.
All this will, of course, come at a cost for the consumer. Monthly phone bills rose by as much as 50% for subscribers in some countries when they switched from the normal 2G to 3G services. Moreover, many may have to upgrade their handsets to avail 3G services. The starting price for a 3G-enabled handset is about Rs 6,000, compared to an entry-level phone of Rs 700.
