Airtel has revised its Rs. 97 prepaid plan
Airtel has revised its Rs. 97 prepaid plan yet again and the telecom operator has reduced one of the benefits, whereas the other has been increased. The Rs. 97 prepaid plan was first introduced in 2018 for a limited period, and earlier this year, the telecom operator re-introduced it with tweaked benefits to offer unlimited voice calling and 2GB data with a validity of 14 days. Now, this plan has been revised again, and this time, the prepaid pack will offer data benefits for just 500MB for the 14-day validity period.
As per the latest revision, the Airtel Rs. 97 prepaid plan offers only 500MB data in total, unlimited voice calling without any ceiling, and 300 SMS messages for the validity period of 14 days. Earlier, the Rs. 97 Airtepl plan used to offer 2GB of data benefit, unlimited local, STD, and roaming calls, and 100 SMS messages per day throughout the validity of 14 days. The revised plan is showing up on the website, and was first reported by Telecom Talk.
