We recently discussed the organic growth of the Bharti Airtel mobile business in a story after the announcement of Q2FY23 Results. As we started covering all the 4G prepaid plans provided by the telcos before the advent of 5G services widely in India, let's look into the prepaid plans offered by Airtel.
Bharti Airtel 5G Services:
Bharti Airtel has launched its commercial 5G services with NSA deployment across eight cities during IMC 2022. The telco also recently announced the launch of 5G in the Kempegowda International Airport (Bangalore Airport), and passengers flying via the airport can experience 5G services on compatible handsets. Airtel is also adding support for compatible handsets as it happens.

The context of 5G is brought into the picture as Airtel subscribers can experience 5G on existing 4G Data plans till the wider rollout is complete in cities where the 5G Network is live. From Rs 10 to Rs 5000, we tried to cover all the tariff plans and top-ups. Without further ado, let's now look into all the prepaid plans as we have taken it on us to have a record of all the plans before India goes ahead with 5G.
