WPC is the national radio regulatory apex body of the Government of India and is accountable for planning, regulating, and managing the limited resources of Radio Frequency (RF) spectrum and associated satellite orbits, including geostationary satellite orbit as well as licensing of wireless stations in the country under the Indian Wireless Telegraphy Act, 1933 (IWTA 1933), and the Indian Telegraph Act, 1885 (ITA 1885) as statutory obligations.
