Mobile Call rates are at their rock bottom, one of the lowest in the world – However, just when you think that call rates cannot come down any further, there is another news which has come – Reliance Communication, the second largest mobile services company has launched and unlimited talk plan, that too for only Rs. 299/- local and Rs. 599/- for STD.
Although, there is not much talk about this plan in the media – It actually is quite a big deal. Imagine that you can talk the whole month on mobile locally for 300 bucks and around India for 600 bucks. No varying fees and worrying about mobile bills. Just call and talk and talk and talk…
Uninor recently announced the unlimited plan, but it was for select group of users like unlimited calls for students etc. But this offering by Reliance beats all that.
The best thing is you can be a pre-paid or the post paid customer, it does not matter – Anyone can subscribe to this plan !
This is nail in the coffin for land-line phones though – They are very shortly going to become endangered species I guess. Last couple of years they are constantly showing negative growth, and with these kind of plans, there is actually no reason for anyone to keep a land-line at home – It’d be ridiculous. I have already done away with my land-line phone a couple of months back !
