TRAI Launches Network Anubhav Platform for Network Quality

The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) launched the Network Anubhav Platform on 4 November 2026. It is a geospatial and analytical dashboard that puts together test results sent in by users and TRAI's own independent drive test data, and it also carries a web interface for Do Not Disturb services. The user test data comes from TRAI's MySpeed and MyCall apps.

What the maps show

The geospatial maps let a consumer see test results split into cellular and fixed broadband, and then further by service provider and by technology, on parameters such as download and upload speeds. A user can zoom and move across the map to see where the tests were taken, and can use filters, legends, supporting tables and downloadable reports to read the results.

The percentile measures

• P50, the median speed: half the tests in an area recorded a speed at or above this value.
• P80, used for mobile broadband: 80 per cent of tests recorded a speed at or above this value.
• P90, used for fixed broadband: 90 per cent of tests recorded a speed at or above this value.

TRAI cautions that these user-generated values are not a full assessment of network quality by a standard methodology, but they tell a user what other users around a place are experiencing. The maps also give a geographic view of the independent drive tests.

For consumers, operators and the regulator

Consumers can report spam and test their internet speed, and can look up results of tests others have run nearby. Through a secure interface, telecom service providers can see consumer test data on call quality, coverage and internet performance with location, date, time and technical values, which helps them find spots that need work. TRAI itself can use the aggregated picture for evidence-based monitoring of consumer experience. The MySpeed SDK lets eligible third-party apps build in the same measurement ability, widening participation.

DND on the portal

The portal brings Do Not Disturb services to the web: a consumer can set preferences for commercial communication, lodge complaints about unsolicited commercial calls and messages, track a complaint and view consolidated and operator-wise complaint information. TRAI Chairman Anil Kumar Lahoti said the platform brings greater transparency to the network tests done by consumers and by TRAI.
