Mobile Number Portability India 2011

What is Mobile Number Portability?


Mobile number portability (MNP) enables mobile telephone users to retain their mobile telephone numbers when changing from one mobile network operator to another.


Mobile number portability in India launched on 20th Jan 2011.


How to change your mobile operator?


1. Send a SMS to 1900 in following format:


PORT (Your Mobile Number)
e.g. PORT 9999999999


2. You will get a SMS reply that contains a unique porting code.


3. SMS to the preferred operator quoting the unique code. This code is valid only for a few days, and one must apply again if it expires.


4. Your existing operator will check with new operator & if there are no dues then approval will be given for porting.


5. You will get a SMS on the time & date when porting will take place. Rules mandate that process be completed within 4 days of applying.


6. After porting is complete, wait for a SMS from your new operator confirming the switch. Your phone may be dead for about 2 hours when the porting takes place.
