When i tried to extract name and number and print in a file then they are being repeated. I tried with and if condition to prevent the repeating with an regex at the start but not successful.

Like Naresh -> 8890328840
Naresh -> 8890328840
Naresh -> 8890328840
Naresh -> 8890328840
Naresh -> 8890328840

file.vsf structure is:

BEGIN:VCARD
VERSION:3.0
N:;Naresh;;;
FN:Naresh
TEL;TYPE=CELL;TYPE=PREF:+917734807608
END:VCARD

Code i tried is:

use strict;
use warnings;

my $filename = $ARGV[0];
my ($name, $number);

open my $fh, "<", "$filename" or die "$!";
open my $fh2, ">", "list.txt" or die "$!";
while(my $line = <$fh>) {
    if( /!^\s*FN/ || /!^\s*TEL/ )      { next ; }
    elsif( $line =~ /^\s*FN:(\w+\s*\w*)\b/ ) {
        $name = $1;
    }
    elsif( $line =~ /^\s*TEL;TYPE=CELL;TYPE=PREF:([+|(?:91)]?\d{10})\b
+/ ) {
        $number = $1;
    }

    printf $fh2 "%15s -> %d\n", $name, $number ;
}

close $fh2 or die "$!";
close $fh or die "$!";
