Malaysia has issued new mobile spectrum assignments in the 900 MHz and 2600 MHz bands, strengthening the frequency portfolios of CelcomDigi and Maxis. The Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) formally issued the confirmed assignments on 30 October 2026, with the rights taking effect on 1 November 2026. The two operators publicly disclosed a combined 70 MHz of newly assigned paired spectrum: 2 × 20 MHz at 2600 MHz and 2 × 5 MHz at 900 MHz for CelcomDigi, plus 2 × 10 MHz at 2600 MHz for Maxis. The awards also introduce different licence terms and financial obligations, with RM584.75 million in combined upfront fees disclosed by the companies. The main technical development is CelcomDigi's reported consolidation of its 2600 MHz holdings into a contiguous 2 × 40 MHz position. The additional 900 MHz frequencies serve a different purpose, providing a low-band resource suited to wider geographic and indoor coverage. 2026 Spectrum Assignment Results: Operators and Bandwidth OperatorBandNew assignmentLicence period CelcomDigi2600 MHz2 × 20 MHz (40 MHz total)1 Nov 2026 to 31 Oct 2030 CelcomDigi900 MHz2 × 5 MHz (10 MHz total)1 Nov 2026 to 31 Oct 2031 Maxis2600 MHz2 × 10 MHz (20 MHz total)Four years from 1 Nov 2026 These are the assignments disclosed by CelcomDigi and Maxis under the October 2026 process, not a complete inventory of all Malaysian spectrum rights.
