Last month, it was reported that the Competition Commission of Pakistan (CCP) is still awaiting the submission of crucial information by the PTCL regarding its proposed acquisition of 100% shareholding in Telenor Pakistan.
Details revealed that the PTCL’s intention to acquire 100% shareholding in Telenor Pakistan and Orion Towers Private Limited is a significant development in the telecom industry.
The CCP received PTCL’s pre-merger application on February 29, 2024, initially submitted with an incorrect fee. The outstanding fee was later remitted to the Commission on March 6, 2024.
