Another parameter is that activation in the present operator’s network is not less than 90 days. A third condition is that there should not be any pending contractual obligation(s) to be fulfilled by the subscriber as per the exit clause in the subscriber agreement. Conditions include that porting of the mobile number is not prohibited by court of law and the number sought to be ported is not sub judice.
“As the existing MNP system shall migrate to new MNP process with effect from 16 December, facility of MNP will not be available from December 10 to December 15 and Unique Porting Code will also not be generated during the migration period. . However, the porting requests already submitted will continue to be processed,” TRAI said on Tuesday.(agencies)
