Call your operator .. airtel, cellone, whatever.
You need to file an FIR at the nearest police station ... you'll need original receipts of the mobile.
Take a copy of FIR,reciepts,etc to your nearest cell phone operator's office
They'll lock the account .. (not sure about the cell phone though)
You'll get a new SIM with the same phone number .. and previous balance back ( from the time you filed the FIR )
That how it works with most of the services

after u make and FIR and give the IMEI number to the police, they in turn give it to all the cell phone operators, so that even if some other company's sim is put inside the phone, it can still be detected.
but i really dont know whether this way ppl get the phone back or not.
i think this system is quite secure, but maybe the cops dont put in so much effort in finding the lost phone

ok i hears
but wat does it mean
Code:
Dont do anything!!! Even if u lock the IMEI no. it can be easily unlocked/cracked with the help of free s/w available on the net. It wont b worth the efforts u will be taking. So just lodge FIR, block ur no. and forget about d phone.i completely agree with Akshay nowadays stolen phones cant be found so dont wate ur time and energy
by now the person must have already changed the IMEI no. and have bought his own sim card ,thus no way of tracking him
