Yes, Mostly SIM sellers are main culprit, their name as issued by for each sim will have good layer of security and will be handy in case of frauds.
It will cause less headache to security agency.

Umbrella wala's are also from shops but they visit those where there is more chance of crowd or people willing to grab free data offers. Especially near college or market areas.

What is really needed is a deactivation registry which shall be fetched by apps/banks/etc daily and their old accounts data be cleared for new issuance of number.

This is good move.
Another milestone move can be- Bank Accounts
There should be internal data at Bank level to be maintained about which employee of the bank opened the particular bank account.
