Update: How to trace any number in the world, including India!
With rapid growth in mobile phone subscribers in India and low call rates, most calls we receive on our mobile are from other mobiles. At the same time, to cater increasing user-base most operators come up with new series everyday which makes remembering a cell number increasingly hard. Also sometime we just want to trace a mobile number for reasons like unknown number in miss call list, to get hint of callers permanent location (sounds unlikely, I know…), etc.
But if you have a look at this wiki page, you can certainly trace any mobile number up-to the level of its mobile operator and state (or zone) that’s too using first 4-digit only. It (wiki page) lists all mobile number series in nice tabular manner categorizing them according to mobile operator and state (or zone).
Like other wiki pages, this wiki is also updated regularly and provides you with latest information. I have never been disappointed by it and I am using it for over a year.
If you prefer simpler interface where you can just enter your cell number and get the desired information, you can try Numbering Plans (read full review here)

how to trace the mobile no with name and location……..in india
pls help…
thanx
karan gihar
i need to know under which tower a particular mobile number is…from which tower its getting its signal
The first four digits of the Mobile number is called MSC code.
MSC stands for Mobile Switching Centre which is the equivalent of a Exchange in Fixedline.
Telecom Authority allocates MSC to each operator according to their requirements.
TRAI releases the MSC codes list which can be downloaded by all from the trai website http://trai.gov.in
The last time i downloaded is of list updated till Jan 2009.
@ NVD,shika
This is not possible without reading VLR (Variable Location Register) of that particular mobile number maintained by the Operator.No operator (as of now) gives out this info to public,
and in future too i doubt will not be available.
@ karan gihar
If you want to know name and original(registered) address you cannot get it as of now.But wait there is some good news….
TRAI is considering releasing a directory of mobile numebrs similar to what we have for Fixedline,but its still under consideration and only GOD knows when we will have it.
but what i do when i want full information about sim user ……….and how i can find my lost phone…..i know only the imei no of my phone….:(…………please somebody tell me please….please….please….please….please….please….please….please….please….please….please….please….please…. any body can tell me how i can find my phone……please i’m in very bad condition… 🙁
please send me mail on [email protected]…………..i will be very thankfull if you help me……………
@ jatin
What do you mean by sim user ?
You can find your lost phone only if it has some tracker in it, either built in like those in samsung or some tracker software manually installed in the phone. Else you cannot track, you can only inform your network service provider like Airtel, BSNL that you have lost your mobile and ask them to block your sim card and add your IMEI to EIR (Equipment Identity Register) which is a black list of IMEI of lost/stolen phones. This prevents your phone from being used in the network and telco can track if they wish to, but what they do is upto them. I have never heard someone getting back their phone after being lsot/stolen and being blocked.
Even if your phone’s IMEI is added to the block list, its valid atmost throughout the country only and the phone can still be safely used outside the home country. Also nowadays there are special software which can help to change the IMEI too.
Isn’t there any we which will show personal details of any number?
hii, can any one send me a link from where i can download mobile tracking software andpls tellmehow to install it in Motorola L7. i heard that this software is available in Samsung handset
how to find the name of the person form the cell number ??????????
@Prasannan
Well yes i did get my lost phone back.
Here are a few tips that one should follow in case of loosing a cell phone.
1)Never ever throw away your cell phone box the IMEi no. of your phone is written on it,.
2) In case of theft/misplacing of ur phone , one should straight away lodge a FIR in which one should provide the necessary details such as make of handset IMEI no, etc etc.
3)One should stay in touch with the authorities involved .
I had lost my HTC TyTnII and i was lucky to get that back even though it was after 8 months.
it was a good stuuff done by you…….what i do when i want the person name also
i want to know recent number if i know old number
grt stuff . it locates caller’s region i.e. state. Can any website or software locate the city from where caller is calling ??
plz help !!!
@Prannoy
I am very glad you got your valuable HTC back, but still the chances of recovery are slim. But we can take some precautions like installing some kind of tracking software, and keeping the box to preserve IMEI as you said and last but not least get another dummy sim(now a days you can get one for free or as low as Rs.10-15) and backup all your contacts. In case of theft/lost you can take necessery actions.
Also 8 months is too long a time to wait. Many would have bought another phone, atleast an inexpensive model. Didn’t you ?
@viplav, aeran
As of now there is no sure fire way to know the name or any personal details from the mobile number.
One thing you can try is google the number, targeting social networks like facebook,orkut etc…
The Indian Govt is planning on releasing a unified directory of mobile numbers and landline numbers, but the bad news is that mobile numbers will be included only upon request from the subscriber, unlike autolisting of fixedline numbers.
@kumar ranjan
Could you be more clear please.
If you meant the subscriber has changed his/her mobile number and want to know the new number when you know the old number. Its not always possible. Its simply his/her choice to change the mobile number and he/she might have even switched operators. And the operator cannot, need not and even should not keep track of number changes.
@sachin
In simple terms No, there is no website or software which can provide this info.
To get a better idea of how this works, read “How about Real Time Location Tracking ?” part of my post here @
http://www.devilsworkshop.org/how-to-trace-any-phone-number-in-the-world/
hi,

Hi Reena,
Technology rocks. If u are able to install a software on your brothers mobile and if you are able to pay Rs4000 per annum then its possible. you can trace all incoming and outgonig calls from your brothers mobile. all the sms in and out will be sent to you. the entire call will be recorded and sent to you. that means you can get a complete call recordings, sms sent and recd. And all this things are happen without knowing of your brothers knowledge. Yes you can.
