Getting Started With BULK SMS
TRAI DLT REGULATIONS
The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) DLT regulations require Indian businesses that send SMS to register their entities, sender IDs, and SMS templates on a centralized distributed ledger technology (DLT) portal. This comprehensive registration process ensures complete documentation and verification of all commercial SMS activities across the country.
The goal of these regulations is to increase transparency, prevent SMS spam, and protect consumers from fraudulent practices. The DLT system creates an immutable record of all registered communications, making it impossible for unauthorized entities to send messages without proper approval and verification through the regulated framework.
