Indian state-owned telecommunications company Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) has just announced two new tariff plans. This can be seen as a move to give tough competition to companies like Jio and Airtel. The new BSNL tariff plans are priced at Rs. 319 and Rs. 99 respectively.
The new BSNL tariff plans are voice-only prepaid plans. The plans offer unlimited voice calls for customers.
The New BSNL Tariff Plans:
Rs. 319 Prepaid Plan
The Rs. 319 prepaid plan offers unlimited voice calls in home circle and on roaming (except Mumbai and Delhi). Users wanting free voice calls in these two cities have to apply for a separate plan.
