Just two months ago, TRAI had directed all telecom operators to implement nationwide MNP, and the deadline was May 3rd. However it was shifted to July 3rd as telecom operators had to make socme changes in their hardware for rolling out the nationwide MNP. TRAI_LOGO

Airtel said with nationwide MNP, mobile customers across the country can now easily shift between states without having to change their mobile number. Also in the statement, Airtel mentioned that now its customers can enjoy special offers like processing requests for porting within Airtel’s network within 24 hours and free incoming on roaming until the portability request is processed.

Bharti Airtel Director (Market Operations) Ajay Puri said,

“With our complete readiness to launch national mobile number portability, we aim to empower customers enabling them to retain this identity as they move across anywhere in the country. To facilitate a seamless transition, we will also allow our customers to enjoy free incoming on roaming while their number portability request is being processed.”

Commenting about the initiative, Vivek Mathur, Chief Commercial Officer, Vodafone India said,

“Customers will be the biggest gainers of the National MNP service as it allows them to carry their existing number across India and also choose the operator of their choice. Vodafone has benefited from the intra-circle MNP that was rolled out in 2011 and we look forward to a similar response this time.”
