Depends on various aspects:
1. if zero downtime and fully automatic DR, RPO and RTO should be in real-time and time should be less than 1 min
2. if manual DR, RPO <=15 Min and RTO <=30-60 min
3. if manual + some kind of automation is in place, RPO <=10 Min and RTO <=30 min

Hello,
don´t think you can define a standard here. It really depends on the criticality of the system. So RTO in one system could be 5 days, where in a business critical system (e.g. aleting system with 24 hour response time) you may need an RTO of a few minutes. Same aspects may apply for RPO definitions.

Criticality of Billing system in Telecom is the most . So what is the general practice you are doing   to define its value for Billing system
