BSNL Recharge Plan: Amid Tariff Hike by Airtel and Jio, BSNL Launches New INR 249 Plan for Customers, Check Validity and Internet Data Details Here
BSNL made a strategic move by offering its new affordable 4G plan for the customers in order to position itself as a customer-friendly option compared to the competition. BSNL Recharge Plan of INR 249 was introduced after the companies raised the rates of their 5G unlimited plans for prepaid and postpaid domains.
Mumbai, July 10: Telecom companies, including Reliance Jio, Bharti Airtel, and Vodafone Idea, recently announced their tariff hikes, leading to a 25% rise in the prices of the new 5G unlimited plans. As Reliance Jio leads the telecommunication market with a significant market share, companies like Airtel and Vi introduced their updated plans last month after its announcement. However, the Indian government-owned BSNL telecom company introduced relief from the price increase in mobile calling and data plans.
Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited launched a new 4G plan of INR 249 that offered higher benefits than the existing 5G plans. BSNL's new affordable 4G plan included more validity in days and internet data per day than the 5G companies' increased data plans. However, BSNL plans are affordable and may not offer higher speed than the 5G networkable.
