To get rid of unwanted and fraudulent SMSes, TRAI has initiated a process to curb commercial messages.

Are you facing problems in receiving one time passwords (OTPs) from your bank? You’re not alone. The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) has adopted stringent measures to restrict ‘unsolicitated communications’.



To get rid of unwanted and fraudulent SMSes, TRAI has initiated a process to curb commercial messages, asking companies to register the SMS in a format with TRAI to reach customers. The aim of this move is to send the right message to the customers and save them from being a victim of any fraud. However, many companies are not taking this order of TRAI seriously, which their customers may have to bear the brunt.

TRAI has released a list of 40 such defaulting companies, which includes many big banks like HDFC Bank, SBI and ICICI Bank, Axis Bank. All these companies (principal entities) are not following the regulatory rules of bulk commercial SMS even after TRAI’s repeated warnings.

TRAI has said that a lot of opportunities have been given to principal entities/telemarketers, and customers can no longer be kept away from the benefits they should get. Therefore, it has been decided that from April 1, 2021, if any message fails in the ‘Scrubbing Process’ due to not meeting the regulatory requirements, then it will be rejected from the system.
