Airtel is busy expanding its 5G footprint in the country. Along with this, the telco is also expanding its data offering. The service provider has rolled out two new prepaid plans of Rs 489 and Rs 509 for its subscribers. Both the new data plans offer unlimited calling, data benefits and more.
Airtel Rs 489 plan
Under the Rs 489 prepaid plan, Airtel is offering unlimited local STD and roaming calls. Along with this users will also get 300 free SMS and 50GB of total data as part of the plan. The prepaid plan comes with a validity of 30 days. Apart from the above-mentioned benefits, the telco is also giving a free subscription to Wynk Music and free hello tunes. The users will also get Apollo 24 by 7 Circle and cashback on FASTag.
Airtel Rs 509 plan
As part of the Rs 509 plan, the service provider is offering unlimited local, STD and roaming calling facility. Valid for a period of one month the plan also offers 300 SMS and it comes with 60GB of total data. The plan also offers a free Wynk Music subscription, free hello tunes, cashback FASTag, and Apollo 24 by 7.
Your mobile bills may go up soon
Recently, it was reported that telecom companies may increase mobile tariffs this year. Mobile companies are likely to increase tariffs by the middle of 2023. “With 5G related ARPU (average revenue per user) uplift likely to be insignificant in near future, 4G prepaid tariff hike remains the most important ARPU lever for telcos. We see a higher probability of 4G prepaid tariff hikes in mid-2023,” told brokerage firm IIFL Securities in a report. It further added that pushing tariff hikes closer to 2024 elections raises the risk of political backlash.
The service providers are expected to increase the price of both prepaid and postpaid plans. To recall, the telecom companies announced the last tariff hike in November 2021.
