 Walkie-Talkie License Guidelines in India (Updated 2025)

In India, the use of walkie-talkies (wireless communication equipment) is regulated by the Wireless Planning and Coordination (WPC) Wing of the Ministry of Communications. To operate walkie-talkies legally, users must comply with specific licensing norms and frequency allocation rules set by the Government of India.

 Who Needs a License?

A license is required for:

  • Businesses (e.g., hotels, event management, construction, security services)

  • Government and emergency services

  • Private organizations using wireless sets for operational communication

 Who Doesn’t Need a License?

No license is required for license-free walkie-talkies that operate in specific frequency bands:

  • 446.0–446.2 MHz (PMR frequency) under low power (0.5 W ERP)

  • These are meant for short-range, personal, or business use

  • Devices must be type-approved by WPC

 Types of Licenses Issued by WPC

  1. Non-Network License (NL):

    • For short-range wireless communication within premises

    • Common for event organizers, hotels, etc.

  2. Network License:

    • For organizations requiring a private network over a wider area

  3. Amateur Wireless Telegraph Station License:

    • For ham radio operators (not applicable for business walkie-talkies)

 How to Apply for a Walkie-Talkie License

  2. Documents Required:

    • Company registration certificate

    • ID & address proof of the authorized person

    • Technical details of the equipment

    • Frequency band and area of operation

  3. Fees:

    • Varies based on the type of license, number of devices, and usage area

    • Includes processing fees and annual spectrum charges

  4. Approval Time:

    • Typically between 15-18 weeks, depending on application completeness

 Penalties for Unlicensed Use

Using non-approved or unlicensed walkie-talkies can result in:

  • Seizure of equipment

  • Fines and penalties under the Indian Telegraph Act

  • Legal action by enforcement agencies

 Quick Tips

  • Always buy WPC-approved walkie-talkies

  • Keep your license renewed and records up to date
