Seeing this, Vodafone, Idea and Aircel had launched similar plans with 84GB data and 84 day validity. Now, Airtel has joined the fray with the Rs. 399 plan offering 1GB data per day and bundled calls for 84 days. Notably, Airtel has clarified that the new prepaid plan offer is applicable only on 4G SIMs and cannot be clubbed with any other plan offered by the company.
