Airtel recharge plans for prepaid customers now costlier, here is the full list
India Today
Airtel said the new mobile tariffs will enable the telecom company to roll out 5G services in India.
Airtel has announced it will revise its mobile tariff plans for prepaid connections from November 26 in a move that will rebalance its average revenue per user (ARPU). This means all the prepaid tariffs will be costlier than they are right now after November 25. The lowest value plan of Rs 79 will cost you Rs 99, while the highest-end Rs 2,498 plan will become worth Rs 2,999 for customers of prepaid connections.
“Bharti Airtel has always maintained that the mobile Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) needs to be at Rs 200 and ultimately at Rs 300, so as to provide a reasonable return on capital that allows for a financially healthy business model,” said Airtel in a press statement as the reason behind the latest tariff hike. Airtel has an ARPU of Rs 153 as compared to Rs 144 for Reliance Jio and Rs 109 for Vi.
