Intel ID : 227120
Synopsis

América Móvil (BMV:AMX), a Mexico City-based mobile telephony operator, must postpone the divestment of its telecoms towers until September, given it hasn't received authorization from Mexico's federal telecoms institute (IFT), reported El Financiero on 14 July, 2015, citing IFT's president commissioner, Gabriel Contreras.

Contreras explained that to grant authorization a plenary session is necessary and there isn't one scheduled until August or September.
