TRAI extends deadline for telecom operators to implement new message traceability rules

In a crucial step toward improving user safety, the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) has granted telecom operators an additional month to meet new regulations regarding the traceability of commercial messages. Originally scheduled to be enforced on November 1, these regulations aim to discourage spam and phishing threats, particularly those involving the misuse of One-Time Passwords (OTPs).
