"RCom has taken all required steps towards enabling the settlement and remains fullycommitted to make the payment to Ericsson from the proceeds of the Spectrum sale," said the telco in a regulatory filing.

Once the no-objection certificate comes in, RCom said it will be able to exit insolvency, pay deferred spectrum liabilities to DoT amounting to Rs 10,900 crore and pay lenders Rs 38,000 crore.
