To find and block a stolen phone in India, you can use the Sanchar Saathi portal, an initiative by the Department of Telecommunications. Here's how it works:

Block the phone using CEIR: The Central Equipment Identity Register (CEIR) allows you to block your stolen phone. You'll need to visit Sanchar Saathi, submit the phone’s IMEI number along with a police complaint. Once verified, the system blocks the phone from being used on any Indian network.

Tracing the phone: If someone tries to use your stolen phone, law enforcement can trace it using the system, making it easier for the police to recover your device​(
