What is DLT Registration and Why Do You Need It?

DLT registration is a mandatory requirement for businesses that want to send business SMS in India. Introduced by telecom operators under TRAI guidelines, DLT (Distributed Ledger Technology) is a blockchain-based framework designed to eliminate spam, prevent SMS fraud and protect end users.

If you plan to send business messages via SMS in India, DLT registration is compulsory.

Without DLT, SMS will be blocked by operators.

Steps to Register on the DLT Platform (TRAI-Compliant)

DLT registration is mandatory for sending business SMS in India.

Step 1: Entity / Enterprise Registration

Start by registering your business on the DLT platform using basic company details and KYC documents such as PAN or GST.

Once approved, you will receive a unique Entity ID, which is mandatory to send business SMS in India.

DLT Entity Registration

Step 2: Header (Sender ID) Approval

Register your Sender ID (for example: AUTHKY) on the DLT platform. Business SMS are sent using a Sender ID instead of a mobile number.

Approval usually takes 1 to 48 hours. Once approved, the header can be mapped in your SMS panel using your Entity ID.

Sender ID Approval

Step 3: Message Template Approval

Submit your SMS templates (Transactional, Promotional, or Service) on the DLT portal for approval.

Each approved template gets a unique Template ID and must include your brand name as per TRAI regulations.

DLT Entity Registration

Step 4: PE–TM Chain Binding on DLT

To activate SMS delivery, your Entity ID and templates must be linked with an authorized Telemarketer on the DLT platform.

Steps:

Login to the DLT portal → Go to Manage Telemarketer → Click New Chain → Enter TM ID: 110200001253 → Submit to complete binding
