Step by Step Procedure for MNP Process and MNP Status Check

A significant number of people today rely on mobile networks for work as well as connecting with their friends and family. Thus, quality network coverage is of utmost importance along with prompt service as well as affordable plans. These are a few key factors for users to switch from one network provider to another. Mobile number portability (MNP) is a facility that enables subscribers to switch over to a new telecom operator without changing their existing number.

• To confirm the port-in request, generate a Unique Porting Code (UPC) by sending an SMS, PORT <10 digit mobile number to port> to 1900.
• At the time of SIM delivery, share UPC with the representative

How can I check Porting/MNP status?
