I was just comparing Idea 3G plans with other operators and find something interesting with Idea 3G sachet pack of Rs.7. Under Rs.7 pack, Idea is providing 20MB* of free data for 1 day. Here asterix/star is for a condition that double data is being offered until Dec 31st, which means Rs.7 pack offers 10MB of data by default. Rs.51 sachet pack is offering 100MB* of data for 3 days. If you activate Rs.7 sachet pack five times through IVR, it will offer the same amount of data for Rs.35 only. i.e 100MB for Rs.35 instead of Rs.51. This is the first time I have seen that a company providing more data in less cost or vice-versa. Rs.103 plan offers 200MB for 30 days while you can get 200MB in Rs.70 only with Rs.7 sachet pack for 10 activation. We all know 200MB on 3G takes few minutes only. Better go for 750 plan with 4GB usage which is again very less but enough for me.

I would suggest to TT to make a survey of 3G usages.. Video Calls and Data usages with the normal SIM cards. It will be an eye opener for the service providers to plan their tariffs.

I have been using idea 3G for last two and half months in a village 40 kms away from Solapur. I can’t find any thing new in this expansion news.

automatically, Airtel 3G customers in maharashtra and goa are benefited as Airtel 3G seamlessly works on Idea 3G AND Vodafone 3G network (choice is yours if you have coverage of both!).

Rohan Singh August 24, 2011 at 6:31 pm
Docomo come to Kolkata with your 3G.
Abhijit August 24, 2011 at 6:26 pm
Great to see Idea expanding faster..
Tata Docomo was first operator to launch 3G services in Maharashtra circle and was also claiming 3G ready operator but now it’s expansion is very slow, it has less coverage than Idea now.. Vodafone also too slow in expanding 3G coverage…
Abhijit August 24, 2011 at 6:14 pm
But until yet not launched in Ambernath -Badlapur towns of Thane District!!
Hemant kadam August 24, 2011 at 4:46 pm
