Indians opt for state-run blockchain platform amid bulk SMS regulations

September 20, 2021 Amy Jimenez

India’s state-owned telecom Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited has registered 7,477 companies on its blockchain-based communications platform. This is after new regulations were imposed by authorities to protect consumers against spam and fraud.

Telecom Regulatory Authority of India, (TRAI), established messaging regulations that require the removal of consumer communication messages in order to verify that the recipient has opted into such interactions. BSNL DLT is a content verification platform based on ledger-based Blockchain protocols.

The SMS regulation applies to all industries verticals. Therefore, the 7,477 registrations list includes private businesses, educational institutions, and banks. According to a source, TRAI warned against blocking communications with non-compliant entities.

“The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAC) will not accept any reason and give no consideration to those who have not streamlined SMS processes. Their businesses should suffer 100%.”

Businesses that use BSNL DLT will have to be subjected to SMS screening against preregistered messaging templates stored on the blockchain. The company’s telecom provider will honor consumer interest and block any mismatches.
