Two leading mobile operators -- Grameenphone and Banglalink -- acquired 15.6 Megahertz of 4G spectrum with a price of $463.6 million in auction today.

Telecom regulators are optimistic that the 4G services will be available by March this year, now that there is no legal complication curbing the process for spectrum auctioning.

The Supreme Court clears the way for Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission (BTRC) for auctioning off 4G spectrum for the telecommunication industry in the country.
