Meanwhile another case is filed in Kerala High Court. The case is filed by consumers this time on the following grounds:
1. NCF is just defined in NTO 2.0, but no clause gives power to DPOs to levy NCF.
2. TRAI cannot put cap on maximum discount, so they want to do away with 33% cap.
3. DPOs cannot force BSTs on their subscribers.
Finally some consumers are also going to court now.
