The new Rs. 509 prepaid plan from Airtel offers the same benefits as Rs. 489 prepaid plan, except for the additional data benefit of 10GB. The plan comes with 60GB data limit along with unlimited voice calling and 100 SMS/day for one month.

Meanwhile, Airtel is reportedly hiking tariffs by up to 10 percent by March this year. The investment banking firm Jefferies has said that Bharti Airtel and Reliance Jio will increase their tariffs in the last quarter of fiscal years 2023, 2024, and 2025. As per analysts, increasing pressure on the revenue and margins of the companies, as well as moderate gains in average revenue per user (ARPU), could be the prime reasons for this hike.
