Tata group telecom services provider share zooms 28% in 2 days; here's why
Tata Teleservices (Maharashtra) share price today
Shares of Tata Teleservices (Maharashtra) (TTML) hit three-month high, gaining nearly 8 per cent to ₹ 74.70 on the BSE in Thursday's intra-day trade, extending its Wednesday's over 15 per cent rally, in otherwise a weak market.
In past two trading days, the stock price of Tata group telecom services provider has zoomed 28 per cent. In the past nine trading days, TTML stock price has surged 45 per cent from level of ₹ 51.53 on May 9, 2025. TTML stock had hit a 52-week low of ₹ 50.01 on May 7, 2025.

What's drives TTML share price
According to a Business Standard report, Tata Sons Ltd, the holding company of the $150 billion Tata Group, may be forced to infuse fresh capital into its loss-making telecom arm, Tata Teleservices Ltd (TTSL). This is because TTSL has to pay ₹19,256 crore adjusted gross revenue (AGR) along with other dues to the central government by March 2026.
On September 15, 2021, Government of India informed regarding reform & relief measures for Telecom Service Providers (TSPs) and on October 14, 2021 issued a communication to TTML granting them opportunity of opting for deferment of the AGR dues by a period of four years and paying interest amount by converting the same in equity. TTSL and TTML have opted for moratorium for four years on AGR dues vide letter dated October 29, 2021. First installment is due on March 31, 2026.
Outlook
The Information and Communication Technology (ICT) landscape in India is evolving rapidly, presenting both opportunities and challenges for enterprises, especially Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs). As the backbone of the Indian economy, SMEs are increasingly leveraging ICT to enhance their competitiveness, efficiency, and innovation capacity Opportunities, TTML said in its FY25 annual report.
The Government of India is actively supporting the telecom industry through various initiatives and policies aimed at fostering growth, innovation, and digital inclusion. India's Atmanirbhar Bharat initiative aims to transform the nation into a global leader in telecom equipment development and manufacturing. The Department of Telecommunications (DoT) is actively supporting this vision by Fostering an R&D ecosystem and Bharat 6G Vision.
Opportunities
The transition to hybrid work models has led companies to place greater emphasize on digital transformation. This increased focus is driving the adoption of agile, cost-effective, and secure ICT solutions, particularly in Unified Communications, as well as Cloud and SaaS offerings.
Public and hybrid cloud solutions are gaining traction due to their simplicity and cost-efficiency, which is resulting in a demand for reliable internet access services and a re-evaluation of traditional enterprise network infrastructure. This shift opens opportunities for solutions such as Internet Leased Line and SD-WAN.
As businesses expand their digital presence and adopt remote work setups, security remains a paramount concern, leading to a rise in the implementation of enterprise security solutions.
Moreover, the aim of achieving omni-channel customer engagement, enhanced experiences, and brand loyalty is driving the demand for advanced business communication and marketing solutions, including cloud communications and omnichannel platforms like WhatsApp for Business.
While traditionally lagging behind large enterprises, the Indian SME sector is progressively adopting technology, supported by the increasing reliability and affordability of cloud infrastructure, competitively priced internet access services, and accessible UC platforms and services, TTML said.
TTML, equipped with Unified Licences (UL) - Access Service Authorization, operates in Mumbai and Maharashtra License Service Area (LSA), serving the regions of Maharashtra and Goa.
Operating under the brand name of 'Tata Tele Business Services' (TTBS), the Company provides Smart Digital Solutions tailored to meet the needs of businesses across the country. Solutions include Connectivity, Business Communications, Security, Marketing and Managed Services.

'Criminal betrayal of our soldiers': Cong slams Modi govt over 'failing' to isolate Pak
NEW DELHI: The Congress on Saturday alleged that the Modi government has failed to isolate Pakistan on the global stage after the Pahalgam terror attack , calling it a "criminal betrayal" of Indian soldiers and citizens. Congress' head of media and publicity department, Pawan Khera, said instead of strong action against Pakistan, China armed it with fifth-generation jets and missiles and the World Bank and the ADB gave more aid to the neighbouring country. He claimed that the UN Security Council also named Pakistan Vice-Chair of the Anti-Terrorism Committee, just days after the terror attack on Indian soil. "After the brutal terrorist attack in Pahalgam, we expected strong actions and global isolation of Pakistan, but what has actually happened? "China is arming Pakistan with 40 fifth-generation stealth J-35A fighter jets armed with cutting-edge PL-17 missiles. Azerbaijan is investing $2 billion in purchasing 40 Pakistani JF-17 fighter jets," Khera said. "The World Bank has pledged $40 billion for Pakistan's development. The IMF approved $1 billion bailout to Pakistan. Russia has signed a $2.6 billion agreement to rebuild a steel plant in Karachi," he said in a post on X. Khera also claimed that Kuwait and the UAE have relaxed visa rules and offered 10 billion-dollar investment deals and Pakistan has joined the China International Mediation Organization, gaining greater influence in Asian diplomacy. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Đăng ký Undo "The UN Security Council has named Pakistan Vice-Chair of the Anti-Terrorism Committee, just days after a terror attack on Indian soil! "This is not just a diplomatic failure. It is a criminal betrayal of our soldiers and citizens," Khera said. Another Congress leader Renuka Chowdhury said in a post that IMF gave $1 billion to Pakistan on May 9, the World Bank decided to give $40 billion to Pakistan soon after Operation Sindoor and ADB gave $800 million to Pakistan on June 3, even though the ADB president met PM Modi on June 1. "Have we failed in our Foreign Policy?" she asked. "Why are the 4 terrorists who indulged in Pahalgam carnage still alive and going around?" she said. "You are able to eliminate Naxals, but not able to eliminate these 4 terrorists, even after a month? Who is responsible for the intelligence failure? "151 tours, 72 countries, many hugs, kisses and gifts. Still no results. India needs answers," Chowdhury said. The Congress leader also said that a special session of Parliament was required to ask questions on US President Donald Trump's claims, more than 11 times, of "brokering a ceasefire" between India and Pakistan. "Why is PM Modi not denying his claim?" she asked.

'Pakistani Generals want conflict, terrorists are their tools': Ravi Shankar Prasad in Berlin
File photo: BJP MP Ravi Shankar Prasad (Picture credit: ANI) BERLIN: BJP MP and leader of the all-party delegation Ravi Shankar Prasad on Saturday sharply criticised Pakistan's military establishment, asserting that its Generals orchestrate conflicts to remain relevant, using terrorists as tools to destabilise India. During a community event with the Indian diaspora in Berlin, Prasad highlighted India's remarkable progress in IT, space, and digital transformation under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership, contrasting it with Pakistan's repeated failures in wars while referring to the repeated incidents of Pakistan-sponsored terrorism and the military's dominant role in the country's politics. "India and Pakistan were born the same day. Where are we in India, and where are they (Pakistan)? India has become a major global IT power in the world. India has become an emerging space power in the world. The startup movements here are now globally recognised. India has also become the second biggest mobile phone manufacturer in the world. We have brought digital transformation with equity and justice," Prasad said. "What Pakistan is doing is creating terror machines. How to create world-class terrorists under their (military) Generals. They attacked us four times and lost every time. We never attacked; they were the ones who always started the war. It is because they are under the control of Generals and not political leaders. Generals want conflict to keep themselves relevant, and terrorists are the instruments through which they execute. Wherever there is a terrorist, either he is a Pakistani or trained in Pakistan," he added. He emphasised India's economic achievements, including a 51 per cent share of global digital payments and its status as the second-largest mobile manufacturer, attributing this to PM Modi's 2014 vision of "IT+IT=IT" (Information Technology + India's Talent = India Tomorrow). "Prime Minister Narendra Modi used to say in 2014 that if he became the PM, he would make an India where IT+IT=IT, which means Information Technology + India's Talent = India Tomorrow. Digital payment in India is at 51 per cent of the world," the BJP MP stated. Prasad also spoke about the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack and India's decisive response through Operation Sindoor on May 7, noting that Operation Sindoor remains paused but ready to resume based on Pakistan's actions. "Pahalgam attack happened on April 22. We attacked on May 7 and hit the terrorist camps. If Pakistan has to talk, it must directly speak to us. Our message was stern and straight: If you stop, we stop. If you fire, we will give a stronger reply. Operation Sindoor is on pause, subject to the good behaviour of Pakistan. It has not ended," he stated. The delegation, led by Ravi Shankar Prasad, includes BJP MPs Daggubati Purandeswari and Samik Bhattacharya, Congress MP Amar Singh and Gulam Ali Khatana, Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Priyanka Chaturvedi, AIADMK MP M Thambidurai, former Union Minister MJ Akbar and former diplomat Pankaj Saran. The delegation arrived in Germany after concluding their visit to Belgium to convey India's resolute and united stand against terrorism.
