3.2 SAMPLING FOR BASIC (WIRE LINE) SERVICES The QoS audit for basic (wire line) service is to be done for the number of exchanges spread over in about

10% of SDCAs with each service providers in specified circles once in a year. As per the current list of the

exchanges provided by BSNL, there are total 1508 exchanges in Punjab Circle. Out of 1508, audit was done

for sampled 15 (Urban) and 61 (Rural) exchanges of BSNL (List of BSNL exchanges undertaken for QoS

audit attached as Annex-1), 1 exchange each of Bharti-Airtel, RCL, TTL, Vodafone and 2 exchange of HFCL.

3.3 SAMPLING FOR BROADBAND SERVICE PROVIDERS TUV–SUD South Asia has to conduct the audit and assessment of Quality of Service of Broadband Service

only in respect of the service providers who are having broadband subscriber base of more than 10,000

subscribers in their licensed service area, for 5% of Point of Presence (PoPs) spread over in 10% SDCAs in

specified Telecom Circle. Location of PoPs, covered for QoS audit is attached as Annex-2.

Discussion with the private broadband service providers reveled that there is no concept of their PoPs on

SDCA basis; they are maintaining their entire data on centralized basis so audit has been done for the

centralized data

4. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The executive summary put in a nutshell the key findings of the Audit by providing: -

“Service provider performance report” for Cellular mobile, Basic (wire line) and Broadband services , which gives a

foretaste of the performance of various operators against the benchmark specified by TRAI, during the months in which the

Audit was carried out by TUV-SUD Auditors.

“Parameter wise critical findings” for Cellular mobile, Basic (wire line) and Broadband services: This indicates key

observations and findings from different activities carried out during the Audit process.

TUV-SUD conducted audit involved a 3 stage verification process which consisted of auditing the records of the service

providers and verifying the data submitted to TRAI. The second step involved a three day live measurement of all the

network parameters. On the basis of the three days live measurement, the auditors checked the busy hour of the day for the

service provider and collected the data for this busy hour for the month in which the audit was conducted Finally, the

performance of the service providers was also gauged by conducting drive tests in three select SSAs per service provider

per quarter.

The three stage audit / verification viz audit of the records, live measurements and drive tests of all the cellular mobile

operators was repeated every month. In case of Basic (Wire line) and Broadband, this exercise is required to be carried out

on quarterly basis.

Essence of compliance report of service providers with respect to the QoS:

1) Cellular Mobile Service:

(i) From the audit of monthly PMR and Live measurements of the network parameter, it was revealed that performance of

all the operators in Punjab Service Area was satisfactory except for one parameter namely ‘Worst affected cells having >

3% TCH drop’ which could not be met by BSNL, Tata (GSM) and Tata (CDMA). The quarterly averaged performance of

BSNL, Tata (GSM) and Tata (CDMA for this parameter was 17.91%, 4.10% and 5.93% respectively. The performance of

BSNL was way beyond the benchmark. Further, BSNL and QTL were showing congestion on 1 and 2 POIs respectively

on quarterly basis

(ii) Similar non-compliance was observed for BSNL, Tata (GSM) and Tata (CDMA) during the live measurements in all three

months of the Quarter with their quarterly average performance as 17.82%, 3.98% and 5.77% respectively. BSNL and QTL

were showing congestion on 1 and 2 POIs respectively on quarterly basis.

From the above analysis, it is concluded that the performance of BSNL, Tata (GSM) and Tata (CDMA) is not satisfactory in

respect of the parameter “Worst affected cells> 3 % TCH drops”. Further, the performance of BSNL was very poor in

respect of this parameter.

AUDIT & ASSESSMENT OF QOS FOR QE-JUNE-2015-PUNJAB CIRCLE

TUV-SUD SOUTH ASIA PRIVATE LIMITED Page 15

(iii) With regard to the Customer Service Quality Parameters, it is revealed that most of the operators are in well compliance

of the parameters on Metering and Billing Credibility, Termination of Service and Time taken for refunds. Only, Vodafone

could not meet the benchmark for billing complaints for both post-paid and pre-paid with its performance as 0.19% and 0.17%

respectively.

Regarding the parameters related to ‘Response time to customers for assistance’, all service providers are in compliance with

respect to the parameter accessibility of call center. However, Airtel, BSNL and RCOM (GSM) have not met the benchmark

of ‘calls answered by Operators (voice to voice) within 90 seconds’ with their performance as 91.34%, 50.90% and

94.91%, against the benchmark of >=95%.

In case of the parameter ‘Termination/Closure within the benchmark of 7 days’, the performance of Idea was very marginally

below the benchmark (99.99%). Regarding the parameter Time taken for refund of deposits, all operators (except

Vodafone) were found to have complied with the benchmark of 100% refund of deposits within 60 days of closure. Vodafone

remained under performed with its performance as 88.04%.

The results of live measurements revealed that all operators (except Airtel and BSNL) have met the benchmarks for the

parameters ‘Accessibility to call center’ and ‘Call connection to operators (Voice to voice) within 90 seconds’. The

performance of Airtel and BSNL for parameter ‘calls answered by Operators (voice to voice) within 90 seconds’ was

86.30% and 43.50% respectively.

(iv) The analysis of drive test results revealed that the performance of the services providers namely BSNL and Aircel failed

to meet the benchmarks of the parameters Call drop rate, Voice quality, CSSR and Blocked call rate in Ludhiana and

Chandigarh SSAs respectively. Whereas, Idea, Tata (GSM), Videocon and RCOM (GSM) also remained underperformed for

parameter Voice Quality in one or the other SSAs (Ludhiana, Ropar and Chandigarh) where the drive tests were conducted.

2) Basic (Wireline) Service:

With regard to the audit of Basic (wire line), it was concluded that the performance of BSNL was not satisfactory in

respect of the parameters Fault incidences, Fault Repairs/Restoration Time, MTTR, Response time to customer

for assistance and Termination/ Closure . Hence, BSNL need to improve their services in respect of these

parameters. Apart from this, TTL failed to meet the benchmark of MTTR. Bharti and BSNL remained under

performed for parameter Call answered by operator (Voice to voice) during 3 days live measurement.

3) Broadband Service:

The QoS audit of the Broadband service reveals that the majority of the operators are largely meeting the

benchmarks. However, some of the service providers have not met the benchmark as detailed below:

5.1.7 KEY FINDINGS ON MONTHLY PMR AUDIT REPORTS: The audit of network related parameters for cellular mobile service providers was conducted at their respective MSCs

in the circles.

TUV conducted audit for cellular mobile operators based on three stage audit / verification viz audit of the records, live measurements and drive tests. This exercise has been repeated every month for CMSPs.

Network Service Quality Parameters:

Network Availability

i. BTS Accumulated Downtime (Not Available for Service): ii. Worst affected BTSs due to downtime

For measuring the performance against the benchmark for this parameter, down time of each BTS lasting for more than 1 hour at a time in a day during the period of a month has been taken for computation. In Punjab circle, all the operators were found meeting benchmark on the above parameters ‘BTS accumulated downtime’ and ‘worst affected BTSs due to down time’ in all the three months of the quarter.

Connection Establishment (Accessibility)

i. Call Set-up Success Rate(CSSR) CSSR includes complete signaling in the call set up process and does not aim to measure the performance of the called exchange or that of the Point of Interconnection (POI). CSSR was established as the ratio of total number of successful call attempts (establishment) to the total number of call attempts made. All the operators were meeting the benchmark on this parameter. Parameters related to Network Congestion: The parameters namely SDCCH / Paging Channel Congestion, TCH and POI are prescribed with the aim of measuring the congestion in the network. In CDMA system, there is no direct counter defined for reporting Paging Channel Congestion as reported by Tata Teleservices. However, they have a defined counter for Paging Channel Occupancy Ratio (PCH Average Using Ratio) which is used to determine the Paging Channel Occupancy which on an average is < 50% on all sites in the network. When the value of this parameter is less than 100%, it is counted as 0% congestion. Thus, there is no congestion on the pegging channel in CDMA system. With respect to this parameter, the performance of the operators is quite satisfactory as all operators met the TRAI specified benchmarks on the congestion parameters.

AUDIT & ASSESSMENT OF QOS FOR QE-JUNE-2015-PUNJAB CIRCLE

TUV-SUD SOUTH ASIA PRIVATE LIMITED Page 24

Connection Maintenance (Retainability)

i. Call Drop Rate: This parameter gives a reliable measurement of the mobile network used by the service provider for maintaining a call once it has been correctly established. Failures in coverage, network congestion and network failures have important impact on this parameter. The audit of this parameter revealed that all the service providers were measuring this parameter as per the TRAI guidelines. Also, all the service providers were found to be meeting the TRAI specified benchmark. The lowest call drop rate (0.20 %) was for RCOM GSM during the quarter.

ii. Worst affected cells having more than 3% TCH drops Worst affected cells are defined as cells in which the call drop rate exceeds 3% during cell Bouncing Busy Hour (CBBH) or at any other hour of a day. The audit with respect to this parameter revealed that all the operators met the benchmark for this parameter except BSNL, Tata (GSM) and Tata (CDMA). The quarterly averaged performance of BSNL, Tata (GSM) and Tata (CDMA) for this parameter was 17.91%, 4.10% and 5.93% respectively. The performance of BSNL was way beyond the benchmark.

iii. Connections with good voice quality:

The audit results for this parameter indicates that all operators have met the bench mark during the quarter.

iv. No. of POI’s having >=0.5% POI congestion:

The audit with respect to this parameter revealed that only BSNL and QTL were having congestion > 0.5% on one and two POIs respectively.

5.2.5 KEY FINDING ON 3 DAYS LIVE MEASUREMENTS:

From three days live measurement assessment, it was found that the performance of all operators was satisfactory as they were largely meeting the benchmarks except for the parameter ‘Worst affected cells> 3 % TCH drops”. The benchmark for this parameter was not met by BSNL, Tata (GSM) and Tata (CDMA) during the live measurements in all three months of the Quarter ended June-2015. The quarterly average performance of BSNL, Tata (GSM) and Tata (CDMA) was 17.82%, 3.98% and 5.77% respectively, during the live measurements in three months of the quarter. The similar non-compliance of BSNL, Tata (GSM) and Tata (CDMA) was observed in monthly audit also. BSNL and QTL were showing congestion on 1 and 2 POIs respectively on quarterly basis. From the above analysis, it is concluded that the performance of BSNL, Tata (GSM) and Tata (CDMA) is not satisfactory in respect of the parameter “Worst affected cells> 3 % TCH drops”. Further, the performance of BSNL is very poor in respect of this parameter.

TUV-SUD SOUTH ASIA PRIVATE LIMITED Page 45

KEY FINDINGS: CUSTOMER SERVICE DELIVERY PARAMETERS

1. Metering and billing credibility-(Post paid & Pre-paid) The performance of the service providers with respect to the parameter metering and billing credibility for both post-paid and pre-paid was majorly within the prescribed bench mark of <=0.1 % . Only, Vodafone could not meet the benchmark for billing complaints for both post-paid and pre-paid with its performance as 0.19% and 0.17% respectively.

2. Resolution of Billing complaints and applying credits -

i. Resolution of billing /charging complaints

ii. Period of applying credit/waiver/adjustment to customer’s account from the date of resolution of complaints

All operators were found meeting the benchmarks of the above parameters

3. Response Time to the Customer for assistance

i. Accessibility of call centre/customer care ii. Percentage of calls answered by Operators (Voice to Voice)

All service providers are in compliance with respect to the parameter accessibility of call center. However, Airtel, BSNL and RCOM (GSM) have not met the benchmark of ‘calls answered by Operators (voice to voice) within 90 seconds’ with their performance as 91.34%, 50.90% and 94.91%, against the benchmark of >=95%.

4. Termination/Closure of Service

In case of this parameters also, all service providers (except Idea) have settled the Termination/Closure within the benchmark of 7 days. The performance of Idea was very marginally below the benchmark (99.99%).

5. Time Taken for Refund of deposits after closures Regarding this parameter, all operators (except Vodafone) were found to have complied with the benchmark of 100% refund of deposits within 60 days of closure. Vodafone remained under performed with its performance as 88.04%.

Live Measurements: The results of live measurements revealed that all operators (except Airtel and BSNL) have met the benchmarks for the parameters ‘Accessibility to call center’ and ‘Call connection to operators (Voice to voice) within 90 seconds’. The performance of Airtel and BSNL for parameter ‘calls answered by Operators (voice to voice) within 90 seconds’ was 86.30% and 43.50% respectively.

6. LIVE CALLING ASSESSMENT:

6.1 INTER OPERATOR CALLS ASSESSMENT: Inter operator call assessment with a sample of 2x50 test calls for each Service provider operating in Punjab service area during the time 1100 to 1400 Hrs and 1600 to 1900 was carried out by TUV auditors. The test calls were made from one operator to another within the same licensed area to judge the ease of connectivity amongst the operators. While doing this exercise, the radio part, the switch part and POI in between the two operators are involved. Congestion in any of these network elements could result in congestion in the network.

To test the Service Providers performance on billing related complaints and their resolutions, TUV-SUD auditors conducted a customer feedback calling for about random 100 nos. of customers. However, in some cases, the number of customers contacted for verification was very less due to less number of billing complaints. During live calling, some of the customers did not attend the calls, so shortfall was made good by taking other complaints to make verification of 100 Complaints. However, most of the customers reported their satisfaction on resolution of the billing complaints.

the drive tests in the respective SSAs was 365Kms, 418Kms and 388Kms. The performance of the operators has

been highlighted below in the tables. The drive test was conducted simultaneously for all the operators following the

same route of drive tests. The holding period for all test calls was 120 seconds. The drive test vehicle across all

routes plied at a speed of about 30-50 km per hour.

For measuring voice quality, Rx Qual samples on a scale from 0 to 7 for GSM operators and Frame Error Rate

(FERs) for CDMA service providers were measured. As per the QoS norms, Rx Qual between 0- 5 for GSM

operators and between 0-4% FER value for CDMA operators FERs is considered to be good, where as Rx Qual

beyond this benchmark is considered to be bad. Call drops were measured by the number of calls that were dropped

to the total number of calls established during the drive test. Similarly CSSR was measured as the ratio of total calls

established to the total call attempts made. Signal strength was measured in dBm at street level with strength ≥ -75

dBm for in-door coverage and ≥ -85 dBm for in-vehicle.

7.3 KEY FINDINGS ON DRIVE TEST: The key observations derived from the results of the drive tests were as under –

(i) In the Month of April-15, drive test was conducted across Ludhiana SSA covering Ludhiana, Jagrao and Samrala SDCAs. The drive test results revealed that performance of the BSNL remained non-complied in respect of the parameters Call Drop rate, Voice Quality, Call Setup success rate (CSSR) and Call Blocked rate with its achieved values as 4.29%, 89.50% (outdoor)/ 92.96% (Indoor), 78.40% and 8.32% respectively. Apart from this, Aircel, Tata (GSM) and Videocon also remained under performed for the parameter Voice Quality with their performance as 94.43%, 92.96% (outdoor) / 92.30% (Indoor) and 93.98% (outdoor) respectively.

(ii) In the Month of May -15, drive test was conducted across Ropar SSA covering Ropar, Nagal and Kharar SDCAs. The performance of the Service Providers across Ropar SSA was satisfactory as the operators were in largely compliance with the benchmarks of the parameters except for the parameter Voice Quality. BSNL, Idea, Tata (GSM) and RCOM (GSM) remained under performed with their performance as 94.83% (outdoor) / 90.54% (indoor), 92.20 % (Indoor), 94.16 % (Indoor) and 93.00% (Indoor) respectively. However, Idea, Tata (GSM) and RCOM (GSM) performed well within the benchmark during outdoor drive tests for this parameter.

(iii) In the month of June -15, drive tests were conducted across Chandigarh SSA covering Mohali, Chandigarh and Panchkula SDCAs. The drive test results revealed that performance of the Aircel remained non-complied in respect of the parameters Call Drop rate, Voice Quality, Call Setup success rate (CSSR) and Call Blocked rate with its achieved values as 2.72%, 91.32%, 92.95% (outdoor) / 91.57% (Indoor) and 7.05% respectively. Apart from this, BSNL, Idea, Tata (GSM) and Videocon also remained under performed for the parameter Voice Quality with their performance as 90.43%, 93.12%, 92.64% and 94.22% respectively.

The deficiencies with respect to adequate coverage and voice quality, encountered by different Service providers at the various locations, shown in the drive tests plots, are detailed in the above table.-5, table-6 and table-7.

The detail of Network coverage and Intra Circle Roaming (ICR) status of different service providers at various locations in the three SSAs is given in table-8.

The analysis of drive test results revealed that the performance of the services providers namely BSNL and Aircel failed to meet the benchmarks of the parameters Call drop rate, Voice quality, CSSR and Blocked call rate in Ludhiana and Chandigarh SSAa respectively. Whereas, Idea, Tata (GSM), Videocon and RCOM (GSM), also remained underperformed for parameter Voice Quality in one or the other SSAs (Ludhiana, Ropar and Chandigarh) where the drive tests were conducted.

9.3 KEY FINDINGS: BASIC TELEPHONE SERVICES (WIRELINE)

Fault Incidences: The audit of the service providers revealed that the performance of all service providers was well

within the benchmark except BSNL. The performance of BSNL was 9.30% for the parameter ‘No. of faults/100 subscribers /month’.

Fault Repair/Restoration Time: For this parameter, Only BSNL failed to meet the benchmark of fault repair by

next working day (Urban Area) with their performance as 62.61%. Apart from this, BSNL also remained under performed for parameters Fault repair within 5 days (urban area), within next working day (rural and hilly areas) and within 7 days (rural & hilly areas) with its performance as 93.69%, 68.51% and 93.33% respectively.

Mean Time to Repair: Only BSNL and TTL could not achieve the benchmark with their achieved level as 15.51% and 10.69% respectively. Metering and Billing performance: For this parameter, all operators were meeting the benchmark.

POI Congestion: All operators were found meeting the benchmark for this parameter. Response Time to Customer for assistance: For percentage of calls getting connected to call center and

answered, all operators (except BSNL) managed to meet the TRAI benchmark. With respect to the parameter of calls answered by operator (voice to voice within 90 sec), BSNL could not meet the benchmark with its performance as 84.01% against the benchmark of >= 95%. BSNL and Bharti Airtel also failed to meet the benchmark for the same parameter during 3 days live measurement with their performance as 82.51% and 94.23% respectively.

Termination/Closures: All operators were found meeting the benchmark for this parameter except BSNL. BSNL

could not meet the benchmark for the parameter with its performance as 76.80% against the benchmark of 100%. BSNL has not provided data for the parameter “Time taken for refunds of deposit after closures” despite our best efforts. Thus, from the above findings that, it was concluded that the performance of BSNL was not satisfactory in respect of the parameters Fault incidences, Fault Repairs/Restoration Time, MTTR, Response time to customer for assistance and Termination/ Closure . Hence, BSNL need to improve their services in respect of these parameters. Apart from this TTL failed to meet the benchmark of MTTR. BSNL and Bharti Airtel remained under performed for parameter call answered by operator (Voice to voice) during 3 days live measurement.

AUDIT & ASSESSMENT OF QOS FOR QE-JUNE-2015-PUNJAB CIRCLE

TUV-SUD SOUTH ASIA PRIVATE LIMITED Page 89

10. QUALITY OF SERVICE AUDIT OF BROADBAND SERVICE PROVIDERS

TUV–SUD South Asia has to conduct the audit and assessment of Quality of Service of Broadband Service only

in respect of the service providers who are having broadband subscriber base of more than 10,000 subscribers in

their licensed service area, for 5% of Point of Presence (PoPs) spread over in 10% SDCAs in specified Telecom

Circle. Location of PoPs, covered for QoS audit is attached as Annex-2.

Discussion with the private broadband service providers reveled that there is no concept of their PoPs on SDCA

basis; they are maintaining their entire data on centralized basis so audit has been done for the centralized data.

Audit was done for the following Broadband four service Providers.

10.3 KEY FINDINGS: BROADBAND SERVICES

Service Provisioning / Activation Time: The audit of the service providers revealed that all Broadband service

providers were well within the benchmark against the benchmark of 100%.

Fault Repair/Restoration Time: With regards to this parameter the performance of the service providers was

within TRAI norms except BSNL, TCL & TTSL, their achievement level was 48.25%, 74.39% and 89.46% for the parameter “Fault Repair by next working day”. Further, BSNL & TCL remained under performed for parameter “Faults repaired within three working days” with their performance as 81.13% and 87.80%.

Billing Performance: For this parameter also the performance of the service providers was found well within the

compliance benchmarks.

Response Time to Customer for assistance by operator (Voice to Voice): For percentage of calls getting

connected to call center and answered, all service providers were found meeting the benchmark for this parameter. However, for parameter “% age calls answered by the operator within 90 seconds”; only TCL failed to meet the benchmark with its achieved level as 65.38%. During 3 days lives measurement, only BSNL failed to meet the benchmark with its achieved level as 76.33% for parameter “% age calls answered by the operator within 90 seconds”.

Bandwidth Utilization/ Throughput: All the service providers were found using Multiple Router Traffic Grapher

(MRTG) and also it was observed that all service providers were reporting combined bandwidth utilization for corporate customers and household customers. The performance of service providers with respect of these parameters was found satisfactory i.e. within benchmark except NSTPL and HFCL. The performance of NSTPL and HFCL for the parameter “%age Bandwidth utilized during the period” and “%age International Bandwidth utilization during peak hour” was 80% and 85.02% respectively against the benchmark of <80%. Live measurement: The performance of D-Vois, Hathway, NSTPL and Pacenet for the parameter “%age Bandwidth utilized during the period” was 87.85%, 92.72%, 85.80% and 81.51% respectively against the benchmark of <80% and TTSL & HFCL for the parameter “%age International Bandwidth utilization during peak hour” was 80.18% and 88.57% respectively.

Service Availability/Uptime: All service providers were found meeting the benchmark for this parameter except

Hathway. Only Hathway failed to meet the benchmark with its achieved level as 88.80%. During 3 days live measurement, Hathway and NSTPL failed to meet the benchmark for the parameter “Service Availability/Uptime” with their achieved level as 82.11% and 97.22% respectively.

Packet Loss and Network Latency: It was observed that almost all operators were measuring packet loss and

latency by conducting ping test on random basis for their internal assessment. However, the ping test conducted during live measurement revealed that all service providers were meeting the benchmark prescribed by TRAI. During 3 days lives measurement, TTSL and Hathway failed to meet the benchmark with their achieved level as 7.50% & 1.26% for parameter “Packet Loss”.

To test the Service Providers performance on billing related complaints and their resolutions, TUV-SUD auditors had

to conduct a customer feedback calling for about random 100 nos. of customers. However, the number of customers

contacted for verification was less due to less number of billing complaints. During live calling, some of the customers

reported that there complaints have been resolved but did not remember about the duration of their resolution.

However, most of the customers reported their satisfaction on resolution of the billing complaints.
