Tata Indicom, the CDMA brand of Tata Teleservices in Delhi circle, on Monday launched a plan voucher with a 1 paisa per second charge for all STD and mobile calls for its Delhi subscribers - also offering extra talk time and SMS.

"The Plan Voucher (PV) 91 allows subscribers to make all local and STD mobile calls at one paisa per second and also offers them extra benefits on data, talk time and messaging for as long as six months," the company said in statement.

"PV 91 combines everything that a consumer needs into one complete mobility solution," Ajit Chaturvedi - MBU Head, Delhi - Tata Indicom said. The PV 91 is available to new subscribers on Tata Indicom network.

Tata Teleservices Limited has a pan-India presence across India's 15 telecom circles. The company offers integrated telecom solutions to its customers under the unified brand name Tata DoCoMo and operates its wireless networks on GSM, CDMA and 3G technology platforms.

CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) technology allows several users to share a band of frequencies and GSM or Global System for Mobile Communication is a digital mobile telephony system.

Earlier this month, Tata Docomo tied-up with YouTube to allow the telecom services firm's 3G prepaid users watch online videos for as low as Rs. 9. YouTube, Apalya Technologies and Tata Docomo will offer the video data plan 'YouTube Recharge', which will offer users about 50 percent discount from regular data charges to watch online videos.

Users can watch 100MB worth of videos for Rs. 9 (valid for 24 hours) on YouTube and Apalya's Live TV streaming service, while they can have access to 150MB (valid for 3 days) for Rs. 19. Under the Rs. 39-plan, users will get 300MB data, which will be valid for seven days. With 100MB data, viewers can watch about 20-30 minutes of video at 240p quality.

"Users have a lot of inhibition watching videos on mobile phones because they often think it is expensive. India has a large prepaid market and we want to take data consumption to the masses," Tata Docomo Head (Data and Mobile VAS) Anand Agrawal said.
