For the unaware, the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) is the body that has the power to allocate new MSC codes to the telcos. Now, the telecom department has allocated new MSC codes to Reliance Jio in four different circles, including Madhya Pradesh, West Bengal, Gujarat, and Bihar.

What Are MSC Codes?

MSC Codes are numbering resources that are allocated to the telcos for meeting the demands of new or more subscribers. The DoT circular highlights that Jio has been allocated the new numbering resources for meeting the demands of one million subscribers.

The first five digits of your mobile number is an MSC code. Since numbering resources are scarce, the DoT allocates them to the telcos only when they require it to meet the demands of more subscribers. The codes are allocated to the telcos on a regional or circle basis. Let’s take a look at the new codes allotted to Jio.
