This will not be the issue with the KYC option. So Airtel launches the new eKYC scheme to their customers. This system will be available for prepaid as well as postpaid mobile connections.

To get a new SIM card, customers have to provide the identity proof, and address proof. The activation of KYC will enable Airtel customers to enjoy instant activation of mobile connection and thereby enhance their overall convenience and experience.

Under this KYC scheme, customers purchasing a new Airtel postpaid/prepaid mobile connection need to submit their Biometrics information such as IRIS and fingerprints scanning while purchasing a mobile number.

The details which you’ve submitted will be immediately compared with the Aadhar database to verify and following the authentication verification, the mobile connection will be activated at once in the name of the customer. The process is fully safe and secure and the retailer of the Airtel number will also be registered under Aadhaar.

Recent statistics revealed that around 7-8 crores subscribers are subscribed to new mobile connection every year and nearly Rs 145 to Rs 175 were spent by Telecos for using numerous sheets of papers.
