New Delhi: TDSAT wants private telecom operators to submit documents regarding agreements made on sharing of revenue on international roaming calls.

TDSAT was hearing a cross-appeal filed by BSNL and Cellular Operators Association of India (COAI) against telecom regulator TRAI over revenue sharing on roaming calls.

BSNL, which is seeking a higher booty on international calls, is opposing Trai''s regulation on roaming calls saying that telecom firms are charging more than Rs100 per minute for international roaming using its network and should according pay BSNL extra charges.

Opposing Trai regulation on roaming, which gives it only 30 paisa per minute, the state-run telecom giant argued the regulator had no right to intervene in the interconnect agreements signed by it with private operators.

BSNL contended in a previous ruling that TDSAT had directed the regulator not to supervise the interconnect agreements as it was on mutually negotiated terms and conditions.
