    @Ritesh…this is wireline broadband and has nothing to with GSM. BSNL is still bending us over with these revised rates compared to say Malawi or Timbuktu.

    India is an IT power my behind…we’re still in late early 90′s compared to rest of the industrialized world when it comes to broadband.

    Why say “Unlimited” and put FUP??
    Even BSNL is learning from pvt operators.

    Good progress but I hate 256 kbps word and FUP limits. I want to leave at 1 mbps in affordable price upto 1000/=.

    Sorry friend, but no effect due to change in minister. These changes occurred just after the change of CMD.

    actually the plans are bs, consider a guy using FN combo 600, his data overage charge is .20/MB upto 5gb and .10/mb beyond 5gb . so in effect he should use data worth rs 1000, if he needs to reach the .10/mb rate.IMHO he should subscribe to a better plan if he is uses that amount of data. so the tariff is pointless.

    MTNL offers 768kbps unlimited plan for 750rs and bsnl offers only 512kbps for the same amount.

    Plans are good, but BSNL should decrease the plan rental.

    Reply
  • sam January 18, 2011 at 7:31 pm

    they should have increased the download limits aleast. i was expecting atleast a doubling in download limits. any way the data overage charges are reduced. and it is welcome change

    still the unlimted 3g plan will appeal to to most customers. they should have offered something similiar for broadband.BSNL will be the loser in the end. as more dataone users will shift to 3g and increase network congestion and as a result high RPU 3g users will port their numbers to other networks.

    BSNL should increase the speed of combo 500 @least during the night unlimited period.lol

    This time BSNL has made restructuring before April.I think we can expect another restructuring as usual in April 2011.I hope instead of new plans the bandwidth of existing plans may be increased in April so that there is no major change required in Tariff structureI expect the maximum speed for plans like BBG 250 ,BBG combo FN 500 etc. to be increased to 4 Mbps and for 625 UL to become 512 Kbps and so on.

    Atlast BSNL increased the speeds of current plans. BB Home Combo ULD 850 is not a good plan instead users can go for BB Home Combo ULD 900 with 4 mbps till 8 GB and 256 kbps there after and get 400 free calls. For this users have to pay just Rs 50 extra.
