Troubled Vodafone Idea on Tuesday paid about Rs 3,043 crore to the telecom department towards deferred spectrum dues, sources said.
Deferred spectrum dues are essentially instalment payments that are made by telcos for airwaves bought in past auctions.
The move assumes significance as Vodafone Idea Ltd has been under financial pressure and is confronted with AGR (Adjusted Gross Revenue) liabilities of over Rs 53,000 crore.
