Bharti Airtel, India’s second-largest telecom operator, is offering two first recharge coupons (FRC) or first recharge plans to customers. FRCs are plans that you subscribe to when you purchase a new SIM card from the telco. The two FRCs that we are talking about are available when you try to get the SIM card home delivered to you. Airtel doesn’t offer any differentiated benefits with the FRCs to new customers to lure them in. So these are basically the same old plans that are available to Airtel customers PAN-India. The two plans that Airtel currently allows users to choose from when they are getting a new Airtel prepaid SIM card are Rs 299 and Rs 479 plans.
