What Is the Operator Detection API?

The Operator Detection API identifies which telecom operator — Airtel, Jio, Vi, BSNL, and others — a mobile number belongs to, along with its telecom circle, in real time.

This is essential for any recharge platform, app, or billing system where you don't want to ask the user to manually pick their operator, which is a common source of failed or wrong-operator recharges.
