- You may experience issues in receiving One Time Password (OTP) from April 1
Is OTP not coming today?
NEW DELHI: You may experience issues in receiving One Time Password (OTP) from April 1 as TRAI adopts stringent measures to curb “Unsolicited Commercial Communications“.
The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) has launched a mechanism to reduce unauthorized and illegitimate SMS by asking companies to lodge SMS in a format with TRAI in order to satisfy customers.
The primary objective of this initiative is to deliver the appropriate message to customers to prevent them from being victims of cybercrime. Many companies, on the other hand, are not taking TRAI’s order effectively, and their customers may end up bearing the bulk of the consequences in the coming month.
It has been informed that principle entities including major banks like State Bank of India, HDFC Bank, Punjab National Bank, Axis Bank Ltd are not transmitting mandatory parameters like content template IDs, PE (principle entity) IDs, etc.
According to the latest statement TRAI stated that “It has been informed that principle entities including major banks like State Bank of India, HDFC Bank, Punjab National Bank, Axis Bank Ltd are not transmitting mandatory parameters like content template IDs, PE (principle entity) IDs, etc. even in those cases where content templates have been registered while sending such messages to TSPs (telecom service providers) for delivery.”
“Several banks, insurance companies, other lenders, e-commerce companies are on the list of defaulters issued by the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI)”
You May Face OTP Problem from April 1
Several banks, insurance companies, other lenders, e-commerce companies are on the list of defaulters issued by the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI). TRAI had already warned that there may be disruption in communication from April 1, 2021, if these entities do not comply with norms.
