“There will be no further delay in the implementation of MNP” said The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) chairman JS Sarma.

For those who wondering what MNP (Mobile Number Portability) is , it a service that will allow you to retain your mobile number while switching to another operator. The switching charge will be Rs. 19 approx.

We would advise you to take this news with a pinch of salt as MNP has been delayed so many times already . And with operators expected to launch 3G service in India by September, we are skeptical about the MNP roll-out. Are you still hoping to get MNP by this year ? It seems to be hard.
