The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (Trai) has recommended that network providers allow callers to display their names to the receiver when they make a regular phone call, suggesting the service be introduced as an optional extra.
The feature is called Calling Name Presentation (CNAP) and Trai recommended on Friday that it be rolled out as a supplementary service across the Indian telecommunication network and on all devices sold in India.
In its suggestion, the telecoms regulator said that each network provider a company like Airtel or Jio - first carry out a trial and assessment in one licensed service area (LSA) with the subscriber base of each TSP in that LSA.
The name, the regulator suggested, should be the one was used at the time of registering for the number.
