A major boost is set to come for Reliance Jio if TRAI's decision to de-link call tariff from that of interconnect usage charge (IUC) gets materialized according to a report by ET Now.

The origin telecom operator has to pay 14 paise as interconnect charges to the operator who receives the call. Regarding the same, TRAI is considering to release a notification allowing service providers to charge lower than 14 paise in a way to allow a lower tariff to consumers.
