How to send transactional and promotional SMS at scale for enterprise customers in India: what buyers discover

See which brands AI assistants put in front of buyers and why those answers are chosen.

The AI answer we saw

To send transactional and promotional SMS at scale in India, enterprises must first complete DLT registration on a telecom operator's portal (e.g., Airtel, Jio, or Vi), register sender IDs, and get message templates pre-approved. Once compliant, integrate with a CPaaS provider like Kaleyra, MSG91, Route Mobile, or Gupshup via their APIs. Transactional SMS (OTPs, alerts) use dedicated routes with higher priority, while promotional SMS is restricted to non-DND numbers and specific time windows (9 AM–9 PM). Use a platform with delivery analytics, retry logic, and failover routing to maximize deliverability at scale.
