Mobile Number Portability in India : Pay just Rs 19
In this new year we’ll have a bigger reason to celebrate. As when the Jan’ 2010 come, it’ll bring our independence in choosing mobile operator without changing mobile number. From January 2010, we have to pay only Rs 19 and change our service provider, while retaining the same mobile number.
On Friday 20th Nov’09 Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (Trai) said that the porting charges for switching one’s mobile operator ‘cannot be more than Rs 19.’
With this rule we as consumer will be most happy. The main loss will be of bigger players, as the new players will gain tremendously.
Number portability will definitely increase competition and in effect a reduction in calling rates. However, the official cautioned, “that the threat for operators is that regulators may use it as a tool to force tariffs down and create opportunities to license more operators.”
