Centre Directs Telcos To Display Caller Names From November 1
The Department of Telecommunications (DoT) directed telecom operators Airtel, Jio, Vodafone Idea, and BSNL to implement Calling Name Presentation (CNAP) from November 1, 2026. This service will display caller names alongside numbers on 4G and higher networks, enhancing caller identification. Users can opt out if they have activated caller ID restrictions, ensuring privacy is maintained post-call.
