TRAI orders telcos to make mandated recharge packs easier to find - CNBC TV18

The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) has told telecom companies to add a dedicated 'TRAI-Mandated Packs' section as the first tab in their prepaid recharge menus. This affects every prepaid mobile user. In practice, the packs TRAI requires will be easier to spot, instead of sitting buried among other recharge options. So next time you recharge, look at that first tab.

Key Statutory Highlights

  • TRAI has asked telecom operators to create a dedicated 'TRAI-Mandated Packs' section in their prepaid recharge menus.
  • The regulator has asked that this section be placed as the first tab in the prepaid recharge menu.
  • The move is aimed at making the mandated recharge packs easier to find for users.
Actionable Advice for Taxpayers / Founders:Next time you open your prepaid recharge menu, check the first tab for the 'TRAI-Mandated Packs' section before you pick a plan. This is a menu change only, so confirm the actual plan details with your operator before paying.
