Re: [ilugd] VoIP situation
According to the Telegraphic Act 1883 and Telegraphic Wireless Act 1935, in Indian, all international calls should be routed through Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI). You can make IP-based calls outside the country but it is not legal to make calls to a local PSTN or a cellular network using VoIP. But of course if you want you can do a PC to PC VoIP call even inside the country. That's completely legal.

[ilugd] VoIP situation
hi guys, Just wondering what the state of play with VoIP is in India - is there any legal issue blocking people from using it ? Also, are there any VoIP providers in India ? I'd love to be able to get a local (delhi / chandigarh based if possible ) local termination. What are the chances of that happening ? If I cant get it from someone, and I decided to just plant an old machine with centos+asterisk on there, would I be on the right side of the law or would the bsnl/vsnl morons come sniffing around my rear end ? - KB -- Karanbir Singh : http://www.karan.org/ : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
