How much income can be earned from mobile tower every month?
The rent you get from a mobile tower mainly depends on the location of your property (city or village), demand for space and network requirement. According to one estimate:
- Metropolitan (like Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru): In these big cities you can get rent ranging from Rs 40,000 to Rs 80,000 per month.
- Tier-2 cities (like Lucknow, Jaipur, Indore): In these cities, you can earn Rs 20,000 to Rs 50,000 per month from mobile towers.
- Rural areas: In villages or small towns the rent can range from Rs 8,000 to Rs 25,000 per month.
Additionally, telecom companies enter into a long lease agreement with the property owner, giving you long-term financial security.
What is the correct procedure for installing a mobile tower?
Telecom companies or infrastructure providers (IP-1) install towers directly. You do not need any middleman to apply.
- Visit the official website: You can apply directly by visiting the official website of companies like Reliance Jio, Airtel or Indus Towers.
- Site Survey: After the application, the company’s engineers survey your property. In this, network requirement, signal condition, height of the building and availability of electricity are checked.
- Agreement and permission: Once the location is found suitable, an MoU is signed between you and the company. After this necessary government permissions are taken.
- Installation and Rental: The tower installation process usually takes 2 to 4 weeks. Your monthly rent starts coming as soon as the tower is commissioned.
What documents will be required to install 5G tower on rooftop?
To install a tower on your rooftop or land, you will need some important documents:
- Proof of ownership of the property (such as title deed or electricity bill).
- ‘Structural Safety Certificate’ of the strength of the building, issued by a recognized engineer.
- No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the housing society or neighbours.
- If the property is near an airport, NOC from Civil Aviation Authority.
Is there a health risk from the tower’s radiation? (know the truth)
Often people have a fear that radiation from mobile towers can cause cancer or other diseases. But studies by the World Health Organization (WHO) and other scientific institutions have not yet found any concrete evidence to prove that the tower’s radiation is harmful to health.
The Department of Telecommunications (DoT) of the Government of India has made very strict rules keeping in mind the safety of citizens. Tower radiation limits in India are 10 times more stringent than international standards (ICNIRP) (in India the limit is 0.45W/m2). Therefore, it is completely safe to install towers even near residential areas, schools, or hospitals.
Attention How to avoid fraud (Mobile Tower Fraud)
As a journalist, I want to warn you about the biggest danger associated with this process. Nowadays, fraud is taking place on a large scale in the name of installing mobile towers. The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) and the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) have issued a strict warning for:
- Never pay advance money: No real telecom company asks you for registration fee, tax or security money for setting up a tower.
- Fake NOC letter: TRAI or DoT never issues ‘No Objection Certificate’ (NOC) or permission letter to any person for setting up a tower. If someone shows you such government letters, then they are completely fake.
- Verify: Before trusting any attractive offer, check the authenticity of the Telecom Service Provider (TSP) or Infrastructure Provider (IP-1) by visiting the DoT website.
Installing a 5G mobile tower on an empty rooftop or land can be a wise financial move. This can give a great monthly income without any extra effort. However, always be cautious while applying, use only official websites and avoid paying money to any unknown person. Keep your documents in order and seek expert advice before signing a legal agreement.
