According to the EMD filings on the DoT website, Jio has accumulated 159830 eligibility points with the highest deposits, while Airtel has accumulated 66330. Adani, a recent entry, has 1650 points compared to Vi's 29370 points.

Digital Desk: According to information released by the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) on Monday, NSE 1.72 percent (Vi) has made earnest money deposits (EMDs) of Rs 14,000 crore, Rs 5,500 crore, Rs 100 crore, and Rs 2,200 crore, respectively.

The EMDs are a component of the applications that the applicants submitted to the DoT in order to take part in the upcoming 5G spectrum sale, which will begin on July 26.

The EMD quantum provides the applicant with eligibility points, based on which it can target a given quantum of airwaves in select or all available bands in specific or all circles, and is therefore a good indicator of a company's bidding strategy and spectrum purchasing capacity. According to analysts, a telecom can typically target spectrum in the 5G sale that is worth up to eight to nine times their individual EMDs.

According to the EMD filings on the DoT website, Jio has accumulated 159830 eligibility points with the highest deposits, while Airtel has accumulated 66330. Adani, a recent entry, has 1650 points compared to Vi's 29370 points.

Depending on the spectrum cap, all four can bid for any band in any LSA with the current points total.
