Would you like to say “Cheers” even before the Commercial launch in Mumbai, then hold your breath!Now, you can actually own & use Cheers Mobile Prepaid GSM Service SIM Card.
I myself is using the Cheers GSM Service and I’m not 100% satisfied by the service BUT considering the fact that its still TESTING its network coverage across Mumbai, the network can be said “OK”.
Feedback from your side if reported will be worked upon which will be very beneficial to you if you continue to use the Cheers Services even after the commercial launch.
The Sim-Kit is priced at Rs.49, the First Recharge amount is available at Rs.101 which gives you a talktime of Rs.91 with an attractive tariff for 365 days. In FRC 101, all local Off-net calls will be charged at just 30paise/minute, on-net Local calls will be charged at flat 10paise/minute and all STD calls will be charged at flat 60paise/minute.
If we talk of SMS Charges then local off-net sms will be charged at 30paise/160 characters, Local and STD on-net sms will be charged at 10paise/160 characters and STD off-net sms will be charged at 50paise/160 characters. What’s More, to enjoy the above tariff you need NOT recharge with any Special Tariff Voucher(STV).
Currently, only one FRC is available and all Recharge vouchers come with 0 Processing Fee, which means lest service tax, you will get the rest of the money spent on Recharge as TALKTIME.Currently, only Voice and Sms services are available but as time progresses all Value Added services will be launched including Callertunes, Missed Call Alerts and also GPRS/WAP.
Cheers Mobile is all set to provide High Quality n Affordable GSM Service to its Nationwide customers commercially very soon. This is first of its kind initiative wherein you can test the network.
The tariff details are tabulated below:
Particulars | FRC 101 |

Local Off-Net | 30paise/160characters |

Note: The network coverage will improve after the commercial launch of the services or as the time progresses and also you may sometimes have to deal with “No coverage” issues as well.
The coverage issues are being worked upon and will be perfect once it launches its services commercially. But seriously, my PRATIKRIYA on CheersMobile is its worth to give a try and if tariff option suits you then Go for it.
