Truecaller CEO Rishit Jhunjhunwala, in a post on X on Wednesday, revealed that in late 2025, TRAI asked Truecaller not to display community reports and spam information against 140 and 1600 series numbers, restricting the company from tagging such numbers as spam. Recently, a report highlighted that TRAI is seeking more powers from MeitY to regulate call management apps and online platforms, like Truecaller, for “wrongfully” tagging and blocking phone numbers starting with “140” and “1600”.
