Solved the issue by Requesting SMS Read permission and SMS Receive permissions when starting the react native app.

import { PermissionsAndroid } from 'react-native';

componentDidMount() {
this.requestReadSmsPermission();
}

async requestReadSmsPermission() {
try {
var granted = await PermissionsAndroid.request(
PermissionsAndroid.PERMISSIONS.READ_SMS,
{
title: "Auto Verification OTP",
message: "need access to read sms, to verify OTP"
}
);
if (granted === PermissionsAndroid.RESULTS.GRANTED) {
console.log("sms read permissions granted", granted);
granted = await PermissionsAndroid.request(
PermissionsAndroid.PERMISSIONS.RECEIVE_SMS,{
title: "Receive SMS",
message: "Need access to receive sms, to verify OTP"
}
);
if (granted === PermissionsAndroid.RESULTS.GRANTED) {
console.log("RECEIVE_SMS permissions granted", granted);
} else {
console.log("RECEIVE_SMS permissions denied");
}
} else {
console.log("sms read permissions denied");
}
} catch (err) {
console.log(err);
}
}

Tried to use permissions API but the host Activity doesn't implement PermissionAwareActivity.

Tried the above steps , but still cant seem to make it work .
Permissions always return NEVER_ASK_AGAIN .
I have tried uninstalling the app,clearing data,changing version number but still of no use.
Any other workaround or fix for this issue ?

Ask for READ_SMS as well as RECEIVE_SMS permission, it will work in sdk version 28.
