- The government may offer limited relief to Vodafone Idea by reviewing AGR dues errors
- Relief could apply to Rs 9,450 crore additional demand up to financial year 2017

The government is considering offering limited relief to Vodafone Idea Ltd. (Vi) by reviewing and correcting potential duplicate entries and calculation errors in the company's additional adjusted gross revenue (AGR) dues, officials aware of the matter told NDTV Profit.
The possible relief would be confined to the Rs 9,450-crore additional demand raised for the period up to financial year 2017, in line with the Supreme Court's Oct. 27 ruling, which permitted reassessment of discrepancies in the Department of Telecommunications' (DoT) demand calculations.
