Previously, we shared a story about how BSNL is triggering price war. It looks like the same as Airtel is following suit by revising with Rs 199 prepaid plan and is now offering you 1.5GB of daily data for 28 days. Previously Airtel offered only 1GB daily data with the same recharge plan.
The 199 prepaid revised plan even includes:-
- Unlimited calling benefits,
- 100 SMS per day,
- Free access to Hellotunes, Wynk Music and
- Airtel Xstream app subscription that has more than 350 Live TV channels.
- Validity period of 24 days.
But, the pack is currently visible to only a few subscribers. The development was first reported by TelecomTalk.
It is worth noting that Airtel already offers a Rs 249 prepaid plan, which gives 1.5GB data per day for 28 days. This plan is available in all the telecom circles of Airtel.
However, the revised Rs 199 recharge plan is currently only accessible in Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Karnataka telecom circles. A lot of Airtel customers can still buy the old Rs 199 plan with 1GB data.
What is strange is that Airtel is offering both Rs 249 and Rs 199 plan with the same benefits.
