When handset is lost : first I contact with the company to stop and give the company PIN number to keep track of calls and locate the handset

First of all we have to call the Customer care and tell them to stop the sim because I've Losted My phone. and then we have to take a complaint to Police Station.

In thi case customer needs to contact to the network service provider so that they can block th SIM and at the same time blacklist the IMEI of the handset to avoid unauthorise users. If the customer wants to change the service provider within one year of contract/plan yes we need to inform the charges whateva the remaining is and ofcourse customer can keep the same number to another network. For that we will generate PAC code to process the MNP ( mobile no portability)

It is important you contact your provider as soon as possible to avoid facing high charges as a result of unauthorised use. Once you have reported your phone as lost, your provider can bar your SIM to stop calls being made on your account. Your provider can also stop anyone else from using your phone by blocking it.
