Airtel recently announced that its broadband users would get up to 1000GB of free data based on the plan they are using. Airtel is silently offering an excellent plan of Rs. 499 for the Airtel Dongle users. Last month, we exclusively reported that Airtel would provide extra data with all its three data card plans of Rs. 499, Rs. 699 and Rs. 899.
The plans are live from the past few days, but Airtel is now promoting them as 'Dhamaka' offers. Here's what the Airtel Rs. 499 plan offers right now.
35GB of Free Data Per Month
As we reported earlier, Airtel, under the Dhamaka offer is offering 35GB data per month with the recharge of Rs. 499. Previously, the same plan used to offer just 5GB data per month, but now modified to offer 35GB.
So, here’s how it works. The Rs. 499 will provide 5GB data up front. However, it will offer 1GB daily data, making it 35GB data per month.
