Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL), the state-run telecom operator in India, has a six month broadband plan priced at just Rs 1449. This is a very affordable broadband plan given what consumers get from other service providers. There are plans that cost more than Rs 1,000 for a month. The Rs 1449 broadband plan has six months validity, but has very limited speed and data for consumption. In fact, there is also an OTT (over-the-top) benefit for the users.
