Videocon Mobile Services is planning to roll out fourth generation (4G) services by July-August next year and is in talks with Nokia Siemens Networks (NSN) for infrastructure.
"We will launch 4G in 10-12 months time, probably by July-August next year... we are in talks with NSN for the network," Videocon Mobile Services director and CEO Arvind Bali told PTI.
The services will be launched in all six circles, where it bagged spectrum in the November 2012 auction.
The company has a Unified Licence, which allows it to provide all kind of services including 3G and 4G.
The company in November 2012 won spectrum in six telecom circles -- Bihar, Gujarat, Haryana, Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh East and West -- for Rs 2,221.44 crore.
The spectrum won by Videocon is paired and liberalised, which means the spectrum can be used to roll out next generation networks and services by adapting a highly spectrally efficient 4G technology.
Bali said NSN is working on a technology wherein 4G can be offered on the same tower sites, which are being used to provide 2G services.
