Vodafone Idea’s Survival in Question as Govt Signals No Additional Financial Aid for Mounting AGR Liabilities

The Indian government is reportedly unlikely to extend any further financial relief to Vodafone Idea (Vi) for its massive ₹84,000 crore adjusted gross revenue (AGR) dues, according to senior officials cited in a recent report. Despite earlier measures such as converting spectrum dues into equity and offering a moratorium, the Centre appears to have drawn a line, signaling that no additional concessions—including relaxed payment terms or further equity conversions—are currently on the table.
