I have been living in Europe last 5 years and had my Indian phone number active (which I use to receive the OTP for bank transactions).

Now after 5 years of usage, on my Indian number, I get a notification that the SIM card is in GRACE STATE.

What is Grace State.? Does it mean the SIM is close to de-activation?

How to retain this number? Has anyone got through this type of notification? Any tips, please!
