The government on Saturday reduced the foreign direct investment limit in internet services to 74% from 100% earlier and introduced a 6% revenue share clause that may spell costlier internet services for consumers.
In its internet service policy unveiled on Saturday, it also introduced a higher entry fee of Rs 20 lakh for category A (national-level) licence
and
Rs 10 lakh for Category B (state-level) licence, against a flat fee of Re 1 earlier.
It has done away with the Category C (local-level) licence altogether.
