Indian mobile numbers are allocated by TRAI and follow a strict region
and service provider
based ten digit coding guideline. At the time of issuance and activation of
mobile number the owner has to submit his or her identity and valid address
proof along with photograph, which is verified by the mobile service
company and self attested by the number owner, and is linked to his mobile number and can be traced using a FIR
by the police with the help of the cellular network operator company.
Real time location of mobile phone is also possible depending on the
operating system of the mobile device. This feature generally is offered
in case of
smartphones with GPS facility. Android and iOS are the prominent
smart phone operating platforms with this tracing facility in built.
Both the operating systems offer the feature of tracking the cell phone
via a web interface using a web browser or dedicated app on another
mobile. The exact location of the phone can be seen on map using the
GPS signals from the mobile. For the feature to work the mobile
device must have internet connection via service provider or WiFi. In
case the mobile device is switched off or not in coverage area, the last
known location can be known but real time update of location on mobile
number is not possible. There are also many third party mobile apps that
offer the mobile location tracking service besides the in built feature
in mobile operating system. Similarly, call logs and last called numbers
can also be accessed via web browser over internet with the help of
third party spy apps that run in background and keep a log of all data
like- location, calls, sms etc. Some such apps also offer access to
mobile camera and microphone remotely. Although it is not advisable to
trust such spy app loggers as more often they collect information
without consent for selling to advertising companies.
Most of the times the best way to
recover a lost phone or get details about a mobile number is the
mobile service provider companies as they can trace the mobile device
and phone number using the imei code of the mobile device. In case of
theft, by giving a written application along with a copy of Police FIR
report the mobile device can be blocked on all service providers in
India, there by rendering the mobile device useless. It is also possible
to wipe off and delete all personal information including photos, phone
book and sms remotely in case of smartphones. In case of unwanted calls
from unknown numbers to finding the address and owner of a particular
number a FIR copy is very useful. Due to privacy of their customers the
telephony companies might not reveal the details of the customer using
the number without the FIR copy and written formal complain. In case of
telemarketing calls and spam calls the more details can be sought from
the mobile service companies even without a police complain. One can
also block all such unwanted marketing calls and sms by registering in
National Do Not Call Register.
Like landlines, mobile numbers in India follow a specific coding wherein
the first four or five digits of the ten digit mobile number are tied to
a specific geography or telecom circle and unique mobile service
provider company. For example, all mobile numbers starting with 9999
belong to customers of Vodafone in Delhi-NCR telecom circle. However,
due to the recently introduced
mobile portability service it is now possible to change service
provider without changing the mobile number, in the same telecom circle.
So a Delhi telecom circle Vodafone customer having his mobile number
9999xxxxxx can switch to a different provider like Airtel, Reliance Jio,
Aircel etc. in the same circle porting his number to the new company and
keeping the same old number while switching to a new service provider.
There are plans to very soon introduce a system wherein mobile number
portability across different telecom circles would also be possible. For
