Vodafone has introduced a new prepaid recharge of Rs 499 that joins the company’s 1.5GB daily data plans like Rs 249, Rs 399, Rs 555 and Rs 599. The Rs 499 is the same Rs 555 prepaid recharge which the telco introduced a few weeks ago. The major change has been made to the Rs 555 plan as it now offers benefits for 77 days, up from the earlier 70 days. So the Rs 499 plan takes up the 70 days validity from the Rs 555 prepaid plan. While the newly launched Rs 499 plan is providing benefits for 70 days in the majority of the circles, there are some in which the plan comes with just 60 days validity, whereas the Rs 555 plan offers 70 days validity. One such telecom circle is Bihar. Vodafone has been expanding its prepaid plan portfolio at a rapid pace and the Rs 499 recharge is the latest addition.

There’s no doubt that Vodafone Idea is struggling to provide services in India right now, but that isn’t stopping the telco from bringing new prepaid plans. Vodafone has now brought a new Rs 499 prepaid plan, whereas Idea has launched the same plan in only select circles at the moment. The Rs 499 prepaid recharge joins Vodafone’s other 1.5GB daily data plans like Rs 249, Rs 399, Rs 555 and Rs 599.
Benefits offered by the plan include unlimited voice calling to any network within India, 1.5GB daily data and 100 SMSes per day. Additional benefits of the recharge include Vodafone Play subscription at no extra cost, which also offers ZEE5 Premium content. For the unaware, ZEE5 Premium costs Rs 999 for a one-year subscription and Rs 99 for one month. Voice calling on Vodafone’s Rs 499 prepaid recharge is truly unlimited as the telco is not limiting off-net voice calls to other networks like Reliance Jio.
