BSNL has launched a new budget-friendly plan with a validity of 330 days. The plan includes unlimited calling, daily data, and is available at a discounted price for a limited period.
The state-run telecom provider already offers other long-term plans, some extending up to 395 days. Customers can recharge with the new 330-day plan until October 15 to get a 2% discount.
BSNL Rolls Out Budget-Friendly 330-Day Plan with Long-Term Benefits
The company announced this plan on its X handle. Priced at ₹1,999, the recharge provides unlimited voice calls across India, including free national roaming.
It also offers 1.5GB of data per day, which totals 495GB for the entire duration, along with 100 free SMS per day. Additionally, users get a complimentary basic subscription to the BiTV app, which is bundled with all BSNL plans.
To claim the 2% discount, customers must recharge through the BSNL website or the Self Care app, with the offer valid only until October 15.
Along with this plan, BSNL has shared updates on its network expansion. The company has officially launched its 4G services nationwide, becoming the first telecom operator in India to deploy 4G using fully indigenous technology.
BSNL has already set up 98,000 4G towers and plans to add around 100,000 more soon. Its 4G network is designed to be 5G-ready, enabling users to quickly access 5G once it becomes available.
The telecom giant has confirmed that its 5G service is expected to roll out commercially by the end of this year.
BSNL Launching Its Own Payment Service: BSNL Pay, Powered By BHIM UPI
State-run telecom giant BSNL is set to introduce BSNL Pay, a digital payment service integrated within its Selfcare app. Powered by BHIM UPI, the service will enable users to recharge, pay bills, and transfer money seamlessly. Unlike standalone payment apps, BSNL Pay will be built directly into the telco’s existing ecosystem, promising secure, swift, and smart transactions for millions of subscribers.
BSNL’s upcoming digital leap comes on the back of a remarkable financial turnaround. For the first time in 18 years, the company reported consecutive profitable quarters. It posted a net profit of ₹262 crore in Q3 FY25, followed by ₹280 crore in Q4 FY25. This contrasts sharply with the ₹849 crore loss during the same quarter last year.
Union telecom minister Jyotiraditya Scindia highlighted the milestone, stating, “Back-to-back quarterly net profits, not just operating margins, for the first time since 2007.” BSNL’s annual loss has now shrunk to ₹2,247 crore in FY25, nearly halving from ₹5,370 crore in FY24.
