Can Children legally have a own phone in India?
Can Children legally have a own phone in India?
There is no specific law in India that sets a minimum age for mobile phone ownership, but schools and education boards often restrict phone usage for students, and parents have the legal authority to control their minor children's phone usage until age 18. Health and technology experts generally recommend waiting until at least age 12-14 for a child's first phone, and parents should monitor usage, set boundaries, and enable parental controls to ensure safe and responsible use.
Sir, there is no specific age limit for children to use phone in India but as per IT Act, it is recommended that children below 18 years should use phone under guidance of parents, especially while using internet. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
