New Mobile Calling Rules Start November 1, Featuring Caller Name Presentation (CNAP)

A new mobile calling rule will be implemented starting November 1. This rule will allow unknown callers to display the name associated with the SIM card. The Department of Telecommunications (DoT) has issued strict guidelines to telecom service providers. Under the new rules, all telecom service providers will introduce Caller Name Presentation (CNAP) from November 1. CNAP is India's verified caller system that displays the caller's number and name on the display. This service will be enabled for all users of services above 4G generation, with plans to release it soon for 2G and 3G users.
