Is Call Recording Illegal in India if I record my call on my phone
03-Oct-2023 (In Criminal Law)
Is call recording legal in India? Is it illegal if you record call when you yourself are talking on call? Is it illegal if you record call of other two persons? What are the rules that apply to call recording? Is it illegal if someone exposes your messages or call recording to public at large?
In other words, if you record a call when you yourself are talking on the call, it is legal. However, if you record the call of two other persons without their consent, it is illegal.
The rules that apply to call recording in India are primarily governed by the Indian Telegraph Act, 1885, and the Information Technology Act, 2000. Under these acts, any unauthorized interception, monitoring, or recording of a telephone conversation is a punishable offense.
If someone exposes your messages or call recording to the public at large without your consent, it could be considered a violation of your privacy and could lead to legal action.
Good luck
