Let’s us understand what is SMS SenderID or SMS Title.

SenderID or SMS Title is the 6 letter unique code which must be approved by the Indian Government. It’s the same code which you see normally when we receive any message from any business not from any one’s personal number. It looks something like this.

ICICI Bank – TM-ICICIB

SBI Credit Card – JX-SBICRD

APPTOFIT – VK-APTFIT

Note that the there are some extra character with hipen (-) which is not related to us we don’t need to bother about that. All we need to decide is 6 characters after the hiphen (-).

Let’s Say you own a gym name such as “Power Gym”. Hence, you can have a SenderID or SMS Title like PWRGYM. Now we will look at the process to get thisSenderID or SMS Title.

  1. DLT Registration: It’s mandatory to have DLT registration. There are providers such as Videocon, Vodafone, Jio, Airtel, BSNL etc. Either you can approach them manually or you can approach any SMS Gateway providers and they will do it for you.
  2. Documentation: Yes there is a documentation and involved. Any Indian Government business registration such as Sole Proprietor, Partnership Firm, or Pvt Ltd etc should match the Business name and the Sender ID or SMS Title.
