Airtel Xstream Fiber, JioFiber, BSNL Bharat Fibre, ACT Fibernet, and Excitel are the top broadband players in the Indian market. All of these companies saw a boost in their business during the time of the pandemic. The broadband players in India have understood that customers are looking for additional benefits with their plans to boost the value of the services they are paying for. Thus, all the major ISPs (internet service providers) in India are now offering OTT (over-the-top) benefits with their broadband plans. Here, we will be looking at the top broadband plans of Airtel, Jio, BSNL, ACT, and Excitel, which come with OTT benefits for consumers. Note that we will be selecting the plans based on the price and the benefits they provide. We won't be choosing the most expensive 1 Gbps plans as these are not usually the plans that customers go for.
