Seeing names when receiving calls from unknown numbers on your phone: Here’s what has changed
Telecom operators are rolling out Calling Name Presentation (CNAP), a feature displaying registered caller names on incoming calls to combat spam and fraud. This network-level solution, mandated by TRAI, aims to enhance transparency by utilizing customer acquisition form data, moving beyond unreliable crowd-sourced information. The feature is expected to be fully implemented nationwide by March 31, 2026.
