Trai ends cap of 200 personal text messages

July 13, 2012 17:13

Just in: A Delhi High Court sets aside the cap of 200 text messages per day for personal communication, but upholds curb for unsolicited commercial text messages.

In November, TRAI raised the cap from 100 text messages to 200 a day after it received representations from consumers and service providers to relax the limit. Trai had introduced the 100-SMSes a day cap to stop unsolicited and pesky text messages from telemarketers selling everything from real estate to weight loss solutions. The cap also put an end to subscribers using multiple SIM cards to send text messages without registering as telemarketers.
