2.2 Early growth
THE TELECOMMUNICATIONS SECTOR 1947-2017
At
independence in 1947, the Pakistan Telecommunication sector was organized as a combined
P&T Department as it was in India before Partition. In September 1959, the Minister for
Railways and Communications decided that a detailed examination be made of the working of
the Pakistan Posts and Telegraphs Department for bringing about improvement in the efficiency
of the Postal and Telegraph services. The Cabinet approved this decision and the major step
was taken in 1962 to create the Pakistan T&T Department.
Although there was some improvement, but with greater demands on the T&T for telephones
and improvements in service, it was felt that the telecommunication sector was not meeting the
needs of the economy. The World Bank also held this view. As a result and after reviews, the
Government decided to convert the T&T into an autonomous corporation that was created as
PTC by an Ordinance on 15 December 1990. The establishment of the corporation was an
immediate step in Government’s strategy,which could not be supported and financed by
Government itself. For this purpose, Government obtained the services of consortium led by
Bear Steams (USA) for study and recommendation, which result in the promulgation of the
Telecommunication Ordinance of July 1995 separating the policy, regulations and operations in
the sector. While policy was reserved for the government, the regulation of the sector was
entrusted to the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA).
A Frequency Allocation Board (FAB) was created for the management of the radio frequency
spectrum and the government’s telecommunication services National Telecommunication
Corporation (NTC) was created. The PTC was converted to the Pakistan Telecommunication
Company Limited (PTCL) on December 31, 1995.
In October 1996, the National Assembly enacted the Telecommunication Reorganization Act
replacing the Ordinances. Although not perfect, the Telecommunication Act 1996 provides a
reasonable framework for the sector structure and organization. With the support of the World
Bank Project the PTA and FAB are expected, over time, to achieve the objectives for the sector
as envisaged in the Act.3It was only after the conversion of T&T Department into a Corporation
Abdul Wali Khan UNIVERSITY Mardan (Buner Campus)
Page 14
in December 1990 when serious efforts were made to wipe out the pending demands and to
provide telephones to applicants in reasonable time. In collaboration with the private sector
through the Build, Operate, Transfer (BOT) scheme, 359,981 lines in 1993 and 423,023 in 1994
increased the capacity of telephone exchanges.
In 2004 the capacity had exceeded 4.5 million lines, an increase of over 3.5 million since 1991.4
For long distance telephone services, capacity of circuits was increased in 1950s by
reconstruction of open-wire lines and installation of large number of 3 and 12 channel carrier
systems.
Carrier Channel mileage increased from 8500 in 1948 to 206,873 in 1962. To further increase
circuit capacity, coaxial cable systems were installed in 1960s and early 1970s. Radio Relay
Systems supplemented these in 1970s and 1980s on both main and subsidiary routes. These
systems enabled introduction of point-to-point Subscriber Trunk Dialing (STD) in 1962 and
Nation-Wide Dialing (NWD) in 1976. By 1981, telephone subscribers of 50 cities had been
provided with NWD facility. In 1990 the NWD stations had increased to 168 and NWD channels
to 10,487. In 2009 the NWD stations had increased to 26,650.5
2.3 RECENT HISTORY
Pakistan Telecommunication Corporation was established in December 1990 to take over the
functions of the Pakistan Telephone and Telegraph Department. Its operations were governed by
the Pakistan telecommunication Corporation Act 1991. In 1991 GOP announced its intent to
privatize PTC and appointed a financial advisory team led to Bear Steams and Coopers &
Lybrand based on whose advice the GOP decided to sell the 26% stake of the share capital, with
management rights, of PTC by converting into a limited company under the provisions of
Companies Ordinance, 1984.
Later on, GOP decided to sell 11.8% of its share, in the shape of vouchers, on stock market
through domestic and international offering. The sale of 26% stake to Strategic Investor
remained on the agenda. In August 1994 GOP issued 1,000,000 (one million) PTC vouchers
exchangeable into 100,000,000 (100 million) PTCL shares (with a nominal value of Rs.10 per
Abdul Wali Khan UNIVERSITY Mardan (Buner Campus)
Page 15
share) and a further 5,000,000 (five million) similar vouchers were issued in September 1994 to
international investors. PTC Vouchers contributed to the National Exchequer about US $900
million (UK placement) and Rs.3 billion domestic issues.
The vouchers were listed and traded on stock exchanges. The price of the vouchers in the first
and second issue was Rs.3, 000 and Rs.5, 500 respectively. GOP also issued Exchangeable Notes
worth US $.150 Million to international investors in February 1997 through Numura
International, UBS & Global Securities. These notes are exchangeable into fully paid “A”
ordinary shares of PTCL – about 3.3% of issued share capital. If the notes are converted into
shares, it will amount to total 15.06% of GOP equity divestiture. In August 1997 a deal of
Securitization of PTCL foreign receivables has been successfully done which fetched US$ 250
million to GOP and equivalent rupee to PTCL. The concept of securitization of PTCL future
receivables from major operators has given opportunity of cheapest possible loan to PTCL.
In 1995, Privatization Commission, GOP appointed a new financial advisor to implement the
strategic sale. Morgan Grenfell, UK, Coopers & Lybrand, Denton Hall, Muslim Commercial
Bank, Deutsche Bank AG, Abacus Consulting and Rizvi, Isa led the team, as members. This new
advisory team initiated work in September 1995 and a lot of steps were taken on their
recommendations.
M/s Goldman Sachs Financial Advisor for Privatization of PTCL started their work with due
diligence. The Government wanted to divest its 26% share with management control. 14 big
international Telecom showed Expression of Interest in PTCL. Among them, 5 reached to the
final stage of bidding, in which UAE’s Etisalat was declared successful. Etisalat got 26% stake
in 2005 at US$1.95 per share generating revenue of US$1.59 billion. Etisalat also got the
management control and has yet to finalize its accrued

TOTAL ORGANIZATIONAL SETUP
The basic management structure of Pak Telecommunication Company Limited is Function–
Oriented for routine operations. It defines job title, pay grades, a set of relatively fixed reporting
relationships, and related formal tasks. In it opportunity tends to be limited to formal promotion
paths, and power flows from the contacts and resources inherent in a defined position. The
nomenclature of jobs is militaristic, same in every section. Its main function is continuing
reutilization of useful procedures. The corporate ethos is bureaucratic moving around T & T
manuals, effecting operating practices, personnel and promotion policies. Pak Telecom has
become a paternalistic institute through life long career programs, having a strong societal
impact. There are long-service employees who have grown up with the company from bottom to
the top management.
The head of the Company is called President, assisted by Senior Executive Vice President, who
control different directorates such as Planning, Operations, International Communications,
System Engineering, Customer Services, Administration and Technology Transfer & Research,
Each Directorate control different Regions under respective jurisdiction. While day to day
operational responsibility is decentralized to 21 different Regions, including 14 geographical
regions. The Head of Region is called General Manager (GM). The GM of the region enjoys
powers mentioned in the T & T manual Volume III. He is responsible for the efficient operation
of telecommunications and finances, revenues and welfare of the staff. The GM ensures that
adequate number of efficient personnel is employed for the satisfactory operation, control and
expansion of telecommunication services.
The GM control different Divisions. The Division is an executive unit of the region and is
headed by Senior Engineer (S.E).
The S.E. controls different Sub-Divisions, headed by Engineer Switch. The SE ensures efficient
administration of his division in terms of technical and welfare matters of his staff. He ensures
Abdul Wali Khan UNIVERSITY Mardan (Buner Campus)
Page 24
that all sub-divisions are adequately equipped with men and materiel for smooth running of
services under his control.
The Engineer Switch is the In charge of sub-division to carry out the order of Division. The subdivision has different units or sections headed by Engineering Supervisors (ES). The ES acts like
senior technician and practically trace faults and rectify defects. They also supervise the work of
Technicians, Assistants, Line staff and other officials, the different diagrams show the complete
management hierarchy within the PTCL.
Network planning, finance, procurement, technology selection and service development are
purely concentrated within the PTCL Headquarters at Islamabad. Within this framework, there is
little scope for initiative, accountability and responsibility by both management and staff.

in the industry.
 It considers that one of the most important aspects of the forthcoming competitive
environment is pricing of products and services.
The new paradigm would require cost-based services with thin-profit margins but higher
volumes. Inherently, PTCL services were not cost-based. There were in-built subsidies and long
distance calls, both domestic and international, were highly priced. The Company, therefore,
evolved strategies of gradual price rationalization

FINANCIAL RATIOS
6.3.1
1.
liquidity ratios :
current ratio = current assets / current liabilities
2016 = 89,832,646 / 96,394,811
= .93
2015 = 78,781,031 / 74,167,232
= 1.6
Current ratios
2016
2015
.93
1.6
Interpretation:
Current ratio shows the firm’s ability to cover its current liabilities with its current assets.
Genrally the current ratio when comes 2 is acceptable .by the internal two years (2016-2015)
comparision of PTCL ,I interpret that the current ratio of 2016 is weaker than that of 2015 .
This weaker ratio is because of investing in capital expenditures.in 2016 their investment in
capital expenditures is high therefore the ratio gets weaker.
2.quick ratio = current assets –inventory / current liabilities
2016 = 89832646 – 2917145 / 96394811
= .90
2015 = 78781031 – 3189011 / 74167232
= 1.01
Quick ratios
2016
2015
.90
1.01
Interpretation:
The quick ratio of the company is as same as its current ratio.
I interpret that ,the ability of the company to meet its current liabilities with most liquid assets
of the year 2016 is weaker than that of the 2015.
This trend of decreasing is not favorable for short term creditors of the company.
