TRAI opens a public platform to compare buildings’ digital connectivity
A new ratings portal lets people look up properties and verify connectivity certificates before buying or leasing.
India’s telecom regulator has launched a platform that makes digital-connectivity ratings of buildings publicly searchable. Announced on 25 September, the system brings property managers, registered rating agencies and consumers into one assessment process.
According to TRAI, consumers can search by property name, location or certificate number and check the authenticity of a digitally signed certificate using its QR code. The framework considers fibre readiness, mobile-network availability, in-building solutions and Wi-Fi infrastructure.
Property managers can submit documents, choose a registered assessment agency and track applications. A companion mobile application allows authorised assessors to record measurements, with results synchronised to the portal. The workflow covers completed buildings and those still under construction.
The launch implements an existing regulatory framework, amended in May 2026, and a rating manual issued in June. It is a new way to inspect published assessments; the announcement does not establish how many properties have been rated or demonstrate an improvement in everyday service. Readers should check the scope and date of an individual certificate.
