Hyderabad , Nov. 30

RELIANCE Infocomm has completed the conversion of its mobile subscriber numbers to its unique 10-digit 93-series in 17 out of the 20 circles. With this changeover, its mobile phone subscribers seamlessly move to this numbering from December 1. In tune with the regulatory requirement, the old numbers will no longer be functional.

This has been done in keeping with the cellular mobile numbering plan in India under the new Unified Access License Regime. RIM subscribers dialling an old RIM number post November 30, will be advised the changed 93-number through a recorded message.
