Tagging or filtering calls from 1600 series not allowed; can block those from 1400 series, says TRAI NEW DELHI: The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India Friday said “any tagging, blocking or filtering of calls originating from 1600 series numbers is not permitted.” Allaying fears that the designated 1600 series – reserved for banking, financial services, and insurance (BFSI) – and 1400 series – mandated for entities making promotional calls across sectors – could potentially lead to misinformation or misinterpretation, the regulator said “any tagging or filtering of calls from 1400 series numbers is not allowed except for blocking on the do not disturb (DND) registry.” “TRAI has mandated the use of 1600xx series numbers for service and transaction calls by regulated entities of BFSI sector (entities regulated by RBI, SEBI, IRDAI and PFRDA) to their existing customers and by govt entities for govt to citizen communication.
