Nepal Telecom states reasons for profit and revenue losses in FY 2080/81

The state-backed Nepal telecom has attributed the following reasons behind its profit and revenue decline in FY 2080/81:

  • The growth of OTT services has impacted the company’s revenues from voice and SMS. Likewise, the company witnessed a decrease in international service and interconnection revenue by about 1 billion 43 crore 84 lakh 48 thousand than last year
  • The company states that the profit took a hit due to the increase in the cost of service expansion and quality improvement even in rural and remote areas. The nation’s state-backed company prioritizes service expansion even in remote areas with less revenue potential and less financial returns.  
  • Due to changes in the policies and regulations related to service rate determination, the service rate has been cut and the revenue has been adversely affected, according to the company.
  • Nepal Telecom has not been able to invest since Poush 2080 to manage resources for the payment of the third license renewal fee of Rs 20 billion for the GSM license.
  • In addition, after the payment decision was made in Baisakh 2081, the fixed deposits in some banks were released and paid before the maturity period. So, due to the change in the bank interest rate, the financial income decreased by about 1 billion, 29 crore 73 lakh.
  • The company also implemented a Defined Benefit contributory pension scheme in FY 2080/81 for employees joining after Kartik 1, 2066. However, due to the change in this rule, the company states that there has been some financial impact as per NAS 19 “Employee Benefit”.

The company’s financial struggles in recent years only corroborate that the country’s telco industry is going through hard times at present.

Being a technophile, I am particularly fascinated by the evolution of mobile networks in Nepal from legacy networks (2G, 3G) to 4G (with VoLTE, VoWiFi, eSIM) and the prospects of the upcoming 5G, and equally enthralled by the development of internet from the dial-up connection to the 2 Gbps XGS-PON fiber broadband technology and their transformative impact in the country.
