I would do the following:
Hi, Mr. Smith, I'm sorry Mr. Jones is tied up in a meeting right now. Let me get your number and I will have him return the call as soon as he is available.
Be super friendly, and efficient and don't let them try and wring information out of you. They will try.

I'd say he's busy, and tell your boss to call the caller back when he's available.

Simply say that your boss cant take the call right now and that they should leave a message.

Mr. Boss is unavailable at this time. May I take a message so that he can promptly return your call?

I will tell him that he is in conference call. I will gladly offer him if I can help him, and if I can't, I will ask him to leave a message, a call back number and his name.

"I'm sorry, but ____ is not available right now. May I take a message?" It's the truth. You're doing your job.

"I'm sorry....he is unable to take your call at this time.
May I have your name and number so he can call you
back at his earliest convenience."
Don't forget to say "Thank you".
Remember ....you are representing your boss.

Just say he's on another line or away from his desk.
