Caller Ring back tone

The Ministry of Communication, Information, and Technology (MoCIT) has declared that Nepal Telecommunications Authority (NTA) can allow the caller ring back tone (CRBT) on telecom networks with a fee. In a notice, the ministry said that companies can also be allowed to play free CRBT on their network on topic of public interest.

The notice said that if the ministry receives a request for CRBT, then NTA can approve it. Then, telcos like Nepal Telecom (NTC) and Ncell can play them on their network.

What kind of CRBT can NTA allow on telecom networks?

MoCIT stated that it can allow CRBT on occasions such as national holidays for e.g., Constitution Day, Democracy Day, Republican Day, etc. Additionally, messages containing content related to nationally proclaimed events or prior notice or informational content related to disasters, epidemics, or national security can also have their CRBTs played on telcos’ networks.

NTA said that on such occasions, if a request comes along for CRBT, NTA will facilitate their play through telecom networks.

MoCIT also said that NTA can allow telecom companies to charge a fee to play CRBT for informational content relating to government, private, or social organizations, special days, establishment days, etc. The same applies to messages or best wishes on the occasion of fairs, festivals, or special occasions of a particular religious group, caste, or regional group.

Earlier, the telcos were put on pressure to play ring back tone by default to all subscribers, without charging any fee. Some were even complaining of the irritation caused by such ring back tones played on every call ringing. Now that the CRBT regulation is on place, telcos can put a filter and get some revenues out of it.

NTA also said that it will determine the price for CRBT.

An experienced tech writer covering news mostly on telecommunication, internet, latest tech & trends, and Gadgets. Being a technophile, I am particularly fascinated by the evolution of mobile networks in Nepal from legacy networks (2G, 3G) to 4G (with VoLTE, VoWiFi, eSIM) and the prospects of the upcoming 5G, and equally enthralled by the development of internet from the dial-up connection to the 2 Gbps XGS-PON fiber broadband technology and their transformative impact in the country.
