Bharti Airtel Tackles Spam with AI: 8 Billion Spam Calls Flagged in 2.5 Months

The advanced AI solution, which utilizes sophisticated algorithms, identified approximately 10 lakh spammers daily, demonstrating its effectiveness in curbing unsolicited communications.

Telecom giant Bharti Airtel has announced a significant breakthrough in its fight against spam communications, revealing that its AI-powered spam detection system flagged an astounding 8 billion spam calls and 0.8 billion spam SMSes in just two and a half months. The advanced AI solution, which utilizes sophisticated algorithms, identified approximately 10 lakh spammers daily, demonstrating its effectiveness in curbing unsolicited communications.
The system successfully alerted 252 million unique users about these spam messages, resulting in a notable 12 percent drop in the number of customers answering such calls. Airtel proudly proclaimed itself as India&rsquo;s first telecom network to combat spam using artificial intelligence, marking a major step forward in enhancing user experience.
Geographical Spam Hotspots
Delhi, unfortunately, topped the list of both originating and receiving the highest number of spam calls. Other regions such as Andhra Pradesh and Western Uttar Pradesh also saw substantial volumes of spam calls. Mumbai and Karnataka followed Delhi in originating calls, while Gujarat led in originating spam SMS, with Kolkata and Uttar Pradesh close behind. The targeted recipients of these SMS scams were primarily from Mumbai, Chennai, and Gujarat.
Spam Call Demographics
An analysis of spam call activity revealed that 76 percent of all spam calls were directed at male customers. People aged 36-60 were the most frequent targets, comprising nearly 50 percent of the calls, while those aged 26-35 accounted for 26 percent. Interestingly, senior citizens were less frequently targeted, making up only 8 percent of the spam calls.
The peak time for spam calls was between noon and 3 p.m., with the activity starting at 9 a.m. and escalating throughout the day. The frequency of these calls dropped by approximately 40 percent on Sundays. Additionally, smartphones priced between Rs 15,000 and Rs 20,000 received around 22 percent of all spam calls.
AI-Powered Defense
Airtel&rsquo;s AI system employs various technical measures to detect and block spam calls in real-time, boasting impressive accuracy. This marks a growing trend of leveraging AI to enhance telecommunications security and improve user experience. The telecom company continues to refine its technology to stay ahead of spammers.
Regulatory Support for Legitimate Calls
To help distinguish legitimate communications from spam, the government has allocated a specialized number prefix&mdash;160&mdash;for service and transactional calls from banks and financial institutions. Customers who have not activated the Do-Not-Disturb (DND) service will continue to receive promotional calls from numbers prefixed with 140.
Airtel&rsquo;s Commitment to a Spam-Free Future
Airtel&rsquo;s initiative represents a significant step towards a more secure, spam-free communication ecosystem in India. The company&rsquo;s commitment to refining its AI-driven technology positions it as a pioneer in the battle against spam. This innovation could set a global benchmark for telecom operators, driving the industry towards more advanced solutions for better customer protection.
Through these proactive measures, Bharti Airtel is paving the way for a future where AI plays a central role in securing digital communications, providing a cleaner, safer experience for users.

Earlier, there was no mobile network in the border areas but the situation has changed now with residents enjoying internet service and mobile connectivity even at Bum-La and Y-Junction but more improvement is needed, he added.

The officer said that all preparations are in place for installing the new towers, but winter would pose a challenge, which might get the process delayed.

As all eyes are on the rollout of 5G services in the country, Vodafone Idea is still facing trouble in finalising deals for 5G equipment supplies and tower tenancies with vendors.
According to ET reports, the tower company, Indus tower has called on Vodafone Idea (Vi) to clear its dues or else run the risk of losing access to its towers from November.
Vi's mobile services to its over 255 million subscribers could be seriously disrupted if Indus blocks tower access to the cash-strapped telco.
According to reports, Vi's accumulated dues to tower firms is estimated upwards of ₹10,000 crore, of which it's reckoned to owe well over ₹7,000 crore to Indus and the balance to American Tower Co (ATC).
The loss-making operator's problems regarding dues are delaying its 5G launch plans, thus leaving it vulnerable to further loss subscribers to stronger rivals like Reliance Jio and Bharti Airtel, say experts.
