Report the loss of your cellphone also to your nearest police station by providing the reference number of your black-listed cellphone.

The police will then register a case.

A national police coordinator will receive monthly reports of the number of cell phones that have been robbed and stolen all over the country. He/she will then compile a national database of cellphones that had been black-listed in that month.
