Over 12.49 Million MNP Requests were Made in Dec 2022: TRAI

In November 2022, TRAI data shows that 12.02 million MNP requests were made. The figure for November is not much different from what was witnessed in December. It is worth noting that not every MNP request necessarily results in the porting of the SIM to a different network. But what it does highlight is the fact that several million consumers are not very happy with the kind of services they are getting.

The telecom operators in India have been asked by the TRAI to meet a certain minimum benchmark when it comes to the quality of service (QoS) provided to consumers. In fact, the government is working on different QoS norms for 5G. Since the time 5G started rolling out in the country, subscribers have seen a rise in issues such as call drops and poor network connection. As per the telcos, it is a temporary situation and will be resolved once the devices are more optimised to be connected to the 5G networks.
