In an unexpected (and frankly inexplicable) move, the Indian telecom regulator TRAI has issued a consultation paper focused on differential pricing of data services, asking whether telecom operators should be allowed to charge differently for different websites, focused purely on the price discrimination aspect of Net Neutrality.

The deadline for submissions is 30th December 2015, and for counter comments is the 7th of January 2016.

It’s worth noting that the regulator has still not held an open house consultation on Net Neutrality, despite the counter comment phase having ended on May 8th 2015.

Why has the TRAI issued another Net Neutrality consultation paper?
