NEW DELHI: Auction for FM radio phase III will be completed by February 2015, a month before the current licences lapse, information and broadcasting (I&B) minister Prakash Javadekar assured on Wednesday. This comes amidst widespread concerns about the impending expiry of licences. 

"We held a meeting recently and I assure you that auctions will happen well before licences (of existing radio operators) lapse in March...one month before at least," Javadekar said in response to a question.
