State-owned telecom giant Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) has launched a voice and data centric plan for Rs 429, which will provide unlimited voice calling and 1 GB data per day for a period of 90 days, for prepaid mobile services.
This plan will give free voice (local/STD) on any network and 90 GB data (1 GB per day) for 90 days on pan-India basis (except Kerala Circle), a company statement said on Tuesday. The telecom firm in a tweet stated: "Get #BSNL unlimited calling with our new combo 429 plan." The BSNL Rs. 429 plan is applicable only for its prepaid users.
RK Mittal, Director (Consumer Mobility) BSNL board said, "This voice and data centric plan is available for Rs. 429, that is, Rs. 143 per month which gives unlimited voice (local/STD) on any net and 90 GB data (at 1 GB per day) for 90 days, which is the most competitive plan in present market scenario."
BSNL Chief Executive Anupam Shrivastava said, "Reliance Jio has hit hard our revenue, particularly in the mobile segment." It could take two years to three years before the company posts a net profit, he added.
BSNL recently launched a "Chauka 444" plan that offered 4 GB data per day for 90 days on the recharge of Rs 444 for its prepaid users. The state owned company slashed the 3G rates in February to match the plans of other telecom operators.
