Process of mobile number portability...!

Step 1:  Send an SMS to 1900 in following format: PORT [Your mobile number] - eg. PORT 9999999999.

 Step 2:  You will get a 8 digit unique porting code (UPC) instantly as a SMS.

Step 3: - Visit the new service provider’s office/franchise, apply MNP service. Here you would need to provide the unique porting code you received in step 1.
*Remember, unique porting code has some expiry time, you should complete the process ASAP.
After you apply to New Service provider, they will take some time for the approval process from your old service provider. This may takes 4-7 days approx for completion.

Step 4: - Your old service provider will surely tell expected date and time they will switch off your number, while new service provider will start your service thereafter.

Step 5: MNP charges are Rs.19, these charges are for porting your current mobile phone number from one operator to another. MNP charges should be paid to new service provider only. You will get the New SIM Card from your New Service Provider.
Now all you need to do is, change your SIM card to new after MNP is completed.

 


Step 6: After porting is complete, wait for an SMS from your new operator confirming the switch. Your phone may be dead for about 2 hours [in between 12am - 5 am] when the porting takes place.
