Why it matters

Why your business needs DLT registration

Businesses sending commercial SMS or applicable voice communication must complete DLT registration, use approved Headers or Sender IDs, register message templates, and maintain the required telemarketer or delivery-chain mapping — according to current regulatory and operator conditions.

Verified Business Identity

Register your legal business or organisation as a recognised Principal Entity.

Approved Sender Identity

Use approved Headers or Sender IDs linked to your registered Entity.

Registered Templates

Submit and use approved communication templates for eligible message categories.

Transparent Delivery Chain

Maintain the required mapping between Principal Entity, Telemarketer and communication provider.

Better Compliance Control

Reduce avoidable campaign rejection caused by incorrect Headers, Templates, Entity IDs or mapping.

DLT processes, required documents, charges, portal fields, approval rules and message categories may vary by operator and may change according to current TRAI, operator and industry requirements. The final process must always be validated against the selected DLT operator's latest instructions.

FAQ

DLT compliance — questions answered

How DLT registration works and how to resolve common compliance queries.

DLT (Distributed Ledger Technology) registration records your business as a Principal Entity on the TRAI-mandated registry used for commercial SMS in India. It links your entity, sender headers, message templates and consent records so operators can deliver compliant messages.

Any business, organisation, institution or eligible person that intends to send commercial SMS or applicable voice communication to customers through a registered telemarketer or communication provider.

New Registration creates your Entity's first DLT registration. Entity Enrolment connects an already-registered Entity ID with an additional supported operator portal.

An Entity already registered on one operator's platform may be able to enrol its existing Entity ID on another operator portal, subject to that operator's process.

Typically business registration proof (PAN, GST, incorporation), address proof, authorised-person identity and authorisation, and business/website details. The exact list varies by organisation type and operator, and Textspeed verifies it before submission.

OTP verification confirms that the authorised mobile number and registered email genuinely belong to the applicant, protecting the entity and the registration process.

The operator reviews the KYC. A payment link may be sent to the registered email or mobile, and after payment the application moves to DLT approval. Unclear documents may lead to clarification or rejection.

A payment link may be sent to the registered email or authorised mobile after KYC review. Timing depends on the operator, and payment does not by itself guarantee final approval.

Review the stated rejection reason, correct the information, and reinitiate or resubmit according to the portal instructions. Textspeed can help identify the reason and prepare the resubmission.

A Header (Sender ID) is the short identifier shown to recipients in place of a phone number. It must be registered against your approved Entity and used with the correct registered templates.

A Content Template is a pre-approved message format with fixed text and variables, mapped to a category and Header. Messages must match the approved template to be delivered.

No. Additional words, punctuation, URLs or variables can cause a mismatch and rejection. Register a new or amended template instead of altering an approved one at send time.

It is the required mapping between the Principal Entity, the registered Telemarketer, the communication provider and the operator so that messages can be processed through an authorised delivery chain.

Common causes are incomplete telemarketer mapping, content differing from the approved template, or a header–template category mismatch — even when each element is individually approved.

Textspeed provides guided assistance across registration, enrolment, header, template and mapping steps, and helps prepare and review your submissions. Operators make the final approval decisions.

No. Approval is decided by the operator based on the submitted information and current rules. Textspeed helps you prepare correctly to reduce avoidable rejection.

Timelines vary by operator, application completeness and review load, so we do not promise a fixed approval time. Accurate documents and correct categories are the best way to avoid delays.

Operator or portal charges may apply, such as a registration or processing fee, and these vary by operator. Any applicable charges are confirmed in the process, exclusive of GST unless stated.

No. You need an approved Entity, an approved Header and an approved Template mapped correctly before eligible messages can be delivered.

Share your reference details with the Textspeed DLT team using the support form, and we will help you check the current stage of your application.

Yes. Textspeed supports header and template registration across eligible SMS categories, subject to current DLT, operator and content-policy requirements.
