About India virtual phone numbers

India telecoms regulator: TRAI. DIDHub handles the TRAI paperwork on your behalf and surfaces every requirement before you pay — never a surprise hold or last-minute document request.

India's regulator TRAI is one of the strictest globally. Standard geographic and 1800 toll-free numbers require KYC — Indian ID (Aadhaar or PAN) or business registration (GSTIN, CIN). Outbound calls and SMS to Indian destinations require DLT registration to prevent spam. DIDHub manages the paperwork on your behalf. Activation takes 3-7 business days after document submission.

FAQ

Do I need to be in India to buy an Indian virtual phone number?

KYC required. TRAI requires Indian ID (Aadhaar or PAN) or business registration (GSTIN, CIN). You don't need to be physically resident in India — companies based outside India routinely buy Indian numbers using their Indian subsidiary's GSTIN or via a registered Indian agent. DIDHub walks you through the document upload.

How much does an Indian virtual phone number cost?

Geographic Indian numbers from $3.00/month USD. National 1860 from $8.00/month. Toll-free 1800 from $12.00/month plus per-minute. $0 setup once KYC approved.

Why is India more expensive and slower than other countries?

TRAI regulation is among the strictest in the world. Wholesale Indian termination costs more than most markets, and the KYC process takes 3-7 business days. The trade-off is that Indian buyers have very high trust in Indian Caller IDs (an 080 Bangalore number on a sales line dramatically outperforms a foreign Caller ID in India).

Can I use an Indian virtual number with Teams?

Yes — Indian numbers from DIDHub work with Teams Direct Routing via DIDHub's managed Teams SBC or BYO-SBC. Microsoft Calling Plans coverage in India is limited; Direct Routing is the common path.

Can I send SMS to Indian numbers?

Indian SMS requires DLT (Distributed Ledger Technology) registration. Every sender ID, template, and use case must be pre-registered with TRAI. DIDHub manages the DLT registration as part of SMS service for India. Without DLT, outbound SMS to Indian numbers will be blocked.
