It is not an offence under IT Act.
Mobile telephony does not come under the purview of IT Act.

Respected Barman Sir Please teach us on "Mobile telephony does not come under the purview of IT Act." It is clear law or held by courts ?

Any offense by misusing the IT facilities, is treated as cyber crime.
Some of the examples are email hawking, defaming in a public portal by unknown person etc.

Indian Penal Code is sufficient to deal with such situation.
