Neha, To Deactivate this dial *123*528# or SMS CAN VAElection to 111.
When there is any USDD activation code like start from *123…. Then Deactivation code always will be in down digit like in this case *123*527# is for activation then to deactivate *123*528#.
The same rule will applicable in all Mobile operators.
