New SIM Card Rules on Connection Limits Take Effect from August 24
India's updated SIM card regulations will come into force on August 24, placing stricter controls on the number of mobile connections a subscriber can hold. Telecom operators will be required to identify and notify customers who exceed the permitted limit of connections. Most subscribers across India are allowed up to nine connections, while those in certain regions are capped at six. Initially, verification will be carried out after activation, with a transition to real-time checks planned by November. The new rules are designed to stop individuals from acquiring more mobile connections than the legally prescribed limit.
