Overview - osp other service provider license telecom it licenses Registration
What is it?
An OSP (Other Service Provider) Registration / License is required for companies providing IT-Enabled Services (ITES) that use Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN), ISDN, or leased circuit infrastructure for their service delivery - under the Unified Licence framework of the Department of Telecommunications (DoT), Ministry of Communications.
Who needs it?
BPO companies, KPO companies, call centres (inbound and outbound), contact centres, telemarketing companies, tele-banking, tele-medicine, and tele-trading businesses that use telecom infrastructure commercially.
OSP Guidelines 2020
The Government of India significantly relaxed OSP regulations in November 2020 - removing requirements for static IPs for work-from-home, eliminating the need for separate International OSP registration, and simplifying the overall compliance framework. Registration is now primarily an online process.
Consequences of non-registration
Operating an OSP-applicable business without registration is a violation of the Indian Telegraph Act, 1885 and can result in disconnection of telecom services, financial penalties, and criminal prosecution under DoT guidelines.
