12 big telcos enquired about telecom stack: Vaishnaw

The government has received enquiries from 12 large telecom service providers from across the world for India's telecom stack, Telecom Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw said on Thursday.

He said the government's Technology Telecom Development Fund (TTDF) would be slowly enlarged to *3,000-4,000 crore over a number of years, from the current 500 crore per year.

The Centre for Development of Telematics (C-DOT) under the Department of Telecommunications (DOT) is in the process of developing a full stack of sophisticated telecom equipment fully indigenously. This includes designing a fully indigenous nonstandalone (NSA) 5G core.
