The broadband sector in India has been flourishing since the past few months, and we have seen the launch of some of the most attractive fibre-based broadband plans in the country. This has majorly been because of the coming of Reliance JioFiber in the nation which has propelled the other broadband service providers to ramp up their offerings and provide better services to the customers to remain competitive. Now, the biggest broadband service provider of the country, BSNL is also not far behind in this race. Although the state-led telecom operator is suffering financially and has weak offerings when it comes to the 4G network, in broadband, that is definitely not the case. BSNL has Bharat Fiber plans under its banner which offer fibre-based broadband, high speeds and massive data. There is one plan for Rs 2,499 under BSNL’s broadband portfolio which compares to the Reliance JioFiber plan of Rs 2,499. Today we look at how these two plans fare.
