Bharti Airtel has announced the launch of the 'Always On' IoT (Internet of Things) solution. This solution comprises dual profile M2M eSIM, which enables IoT devices to always be connected to the mobile network from different operators. Bharti Airtel said that the Airtel Always On solution complies with the Automotive Research Association of India (ARAI)'s AIS-140 standard implemented by the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH).




The Indian government has made it mandatory for all registered buses and taxis to mandatorily install a device that complies with the AIS-40 standards.
