If someone records his own phone call without the consent of parties from whom the phone calls came then what would be the consequence?

I think in India, recording the telephone call without the consent of the other side, is not declared as illegal.

Such procedure has not been introduced in Indian court as on day so no comment whether it is legal or illegal but has no scope to use in legal proceeding.

Law is silent about it.

I do not think it covers phone tapping of others.Recording my own talk with others can not be illegal,it is just like keeping a note in diary,which once proved to have been done in regular course of business or out of regular habit,it would be admissible in evidence also subject to authenticity of voice of person whose voice is in question.
