Jio, Airtel, Vi plan roll out of built-in caller ID to curb spam calls

Get ready to say goodbye to anonymous calls. Soon, your phone could display the name of any incoming caller without needing to download a third-party app like Truecaller.

In a significant technological advancement, India’s leading telecom operators—Vodafone Idea Ltd, Bharti Airtel Ltd, and Reliance Jio Infocomm Ltd—are collaborating with global companies such as HP, Dell, Ericsson, and Nokia to develop the servers and software required to roll out this feature.
