TRAI Restrictions on Jumbo SMS Packs

  • Sumo

College students and others who enjoys   the privilege  of  unlimited  SMS service packs provided by various    mobile operators has to disappoint  as  the  Telecom regulatory  body(TRAI)    directed  them to restrict  SMS packs  to  a maximum   of  100 per day.

Telecom  Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI)  has  announced that  it will  implement  the  new regulations (Telecom Commercial Communications Customer Preference (Sixth Amendment) Regulations, 2011.) aimed at  reducing   the nuisance caused by  the    telemarketing SMSes  from   27th of  September  of 2011. However these regulations will not affect telemarketers who use products and services  which comply with  the new regulations.

As per the TRAI notification  subscribers cannot  renew  SMS packs which  allow  more  than  100 SMS on a  day  .  The  major telecom players who offers  more than 100 SMS per  day packages  are expected  to replace them with new packages that allows 100 SMS per day or  3000 SMS in a month.
