Airtel takes on Vodafone; offers 1GB data per day for Rs 198

The telecom warfare is getting fierce day-by-day as the operators are providing their subscribers huge data packs and voice calling offers at dirt cheap prices. Now Airtel has announced a new plan for its prepaid subscribers at Rs 198 which will offer them 1GB data per day and unlimited voice calls to any other network.

Under this plan users will get 1GB 3G and 4G data every day and is valid up to 28 days. It should be noted that the company is yet to officially announce the plan, but according to TelecomTalk the plan is available for select users and is also listed in the best recharges category on the MyAirtel app.

This new plan will go directly against the Rs 199 plan from Vodafone which offers both calling and internet benefits. It offers 1GB data which comes with a validity of 28 days and unlimited calling also has lot of limitations.

Under this plan users will only be able to make 250 minutes of both local and STD calls for free everyday and there is 1000 minutes weekly limit. If users make more than 250 minutes calls in a day they will be charged 30 paisa per minute. Also if users call 300 unique numbers in a week, the company will charge 30 paisa per minute for the remaining validity of the plan.
