Keeping the prepaid and postpaid segment aside, Bharti Airtel is focusing on other ventures like 4G Hotspot device and also providing free Wi-Fi to users across the country. Before the launch of JioFi hotspot device, Airtel and Vodafone used to offer their own hotspot devices at exorbitant prices, but that has changed with JioFi's launch. As you might already know, Reliance Industries, the parent company of Reliance Jio Infocomm is the leading hotspot device maker in India, thanks to its affordable pricing. To tackle Jio and its JioFi devices, Bharti Airtel has revised 4G Hotspot plans and it's now providing more than 500% data than earlier at the same prices. In fact, users who choose advance rental plans of more than six months will be eligible for a free Airtel 4G Hotspot device at no additional cost. Also, Airtel is providing just two tariff plans of Rs 399 and Rs 599 making it easier for the consumers to choose the plan they want. Earlier, the telco had more than ten tariff plans in place for Airtel 4G Hotspot device users.
