Indian telecom sector is currently undergoing some significant changes, especially after the entrance of Reliance Jio. What started as a trend by Vodafone India with the ‘SuperHour’ data packs is now followed by the other operators as well. After Idea Cellular following Vodafone with hourly data packs, it’s now time for Aircel to do the same.

Yes, Aircel entered the hourly data bandwagon by introducing a new plan of Rs. 15, which gives the user unlimited 3G data for an hour. However, currently, the plan is live only for the users of Tamil Nadu and Aircel will introduce the plans in every city of India shortly.
Also, do make a note that the plan may not be available for users of Chennai circle as the official website of Aircel lists the circle does not come under Tamil Nadu. That said, Aircel users can enjoy unlimited data for one hour at just Rs. 15. The subscribers of Aircel under Tamil Nadu circle can activate the pack by dialling the USSD code- *121*015#, and as of now, that’s the only way to activate the pack, which might be a disappointment for some users.
Of late, Aircel has been struggling to keep up the name in Indian telecom sector and was purely dominated by new entrant Reliance Jio, Airtel, and Vodafone with their offerings. Although Aircel came out with several attractive plans, that wasn’t enough for the telecom company to lure the customers.
