In order to maintain maximum transparency and avoid security threats, Indian mobile operators will block all mobile phones without a genuine IMEI number from 1st December 2009. This rule has been implanted in compliance with the Govt. (DOT) circular to start barring the handsets carrying Invalid IMEI numbers. Once the mobile operators start blocking mobile phones with fake IMEI numbers, the mobile phone users will have no choice left, except buying a new mobile handset.
It’s expected that nearly 25 million mobile handsets will stop working once invalid and fake IMEI numbers get blocked. Since this kind of step is being taken for the first time, Government of India has also moved ahead to help such innocent users by providing new IMEI number for blocked handsets. They have started GII (Genuine IMEI Implant Program) to implant the genuine IMEI numbers on the mobile handsets which were carrying bad/non genuine IMEI numbers.
TIP : How to know if mobile IMEI number is valid and original
Features of GII Program
- Approved by Government of India (DOT) to block invalid, duplicate IMEI numbers to minimize security risks
- Invalid IMEI numbers can be converted to genuine IMEI numbers using GII program
- Once genuine IMEI gets implanted, network service barring will be removed
- More than 1600 GII service outlet partners nationwide
Simply take your mobile handset to your nearest GII service outlet and get a new genuine IMEI number implanted on it. You can find a nearest GII outlet here. The new IMEI number implantation costs Rs. 199 only.

@ Phasting : Well, there are more than 1600 outlets in India. Government might not increase the number of outlets since this problem won’t take place anymore as people have got smarter after 1st December. Since a lots of people are trying to get their IMEI number changed, it’s possible to find a long queue and a busy server. I would suggest you to make your stand in that queue.
