How to Check If Call Forwarding Is Active on Your Indian SIM (2026)

One USSD code checks call forwarding status on Jio, Airtel, Vodafone Vi, and BSNL.

Quick Answer

To check if call forwarding is active on any Indian carrier (Jio, Airtel, Vi, BSNL), dial *#67# from your phone and press call. If call forwarding is active, your screen shows the forwarding number. If not set up, it shows "Voice Call Forwarding: Not Active" or similar.
