News unfold earlier this week about TRAI planning to cost a charge from cell customers who use a number of SIM playing cards within the nation.
The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) on Friday mentioned that the claims of charging clients for holding a number of SIMs or numbering assets are utterly false and baseless and serve solely to mislead the general public.
The Department of Telecommunications (DoT), being the only real custodian of telecommunication identifiers (TI) assets, had approached the TRAI by its reference dated September 29, 2022, searching for its suggestions on the revised National Numbering Plan for enterprise environment friendly administration and considered utilisation of numbering assets within the nation.
Accordingly, this Consultation Paper (CP) of TRAI on the revision of the National Numbering Plan (NNP) was issued to evaluate all elements at the moment affecting the allocation and utilisation of TI assets.
“TRAI has consistently been advocative of minimum regulatory intervention promoting forbearance and the self-regulation of market forces,” mentioned the telecom regulator.
“We unequivocally repudiate and emphatically condemn any spurious conjectures that perpetuate the circulation of such misleading information concerning the consultation paper at hand,” it added.
The TRAI additionally urged all stakeholders and most people to check with the official press launch and session paper issued by it by its web site for correct data.
