Bharti Airtel Reduces Validity of Rs 219 Prepaid Plan

Bharti Airtel, India’s second-largest telecom operator, has reduced the validity of its Rs 219 prepaid plan. This plan comes with 3GB of data, unlimited voice calling and 300 SMS. These benefits were there before and is there now too. The only benefit of the plan which has changed is that its validity has been reduced. Airtel’s move is to focus on moving average revenue per user (ARPU) upwards. The Rs 219 prepaid plan earlier used to come with 30 days of service validity, but now will come with 28 days of service validity.

Bharti Airtel has been pretty vocal about increasing the tariffs in the industry further to improve the margins for such a capex heavy industry. The company wants to reach an average revenue per user (ARPU) of Rs 300 in the short-term from here. One tariff hike would likely enable the operator to reach close to that figure or surpass it.
