The CEO of the National Telecom Regulatory Authority (NTRA) Mohamed Shamroukh, announced the agency’s initial approval to increase the prices of telecommunications services in Egypt.
This came during the Fifth Generation session on the sidelines of Cairo ICT 2024 exhibition held on Monday.
He explained that this expected increase comes as a result of the high operating costs facing mobile companies, adding that NTRA sees the right of companies to review service prices.
The CEO of the NTRA said that the agency is currently studying the appropriate timing to implement the new increase in telecommunications service prices, in order to best take into account consumer interests.
