Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL), a state-run Indian telecom company, has said that it will waive all the installation charges for broadband connections until March 31, 2024. It is worth noting here that the customers pay different sums for installation charges depending on the kind of broadband connection they are going for. BSNL provides different kinds of internet services. This includes copper connections as well as fibre connections. The state-run telco is present with its broadband internet services across the country, and thus the waiving of installation charges may help the company in adding new subscribers.

With the base Rs 329 plan, users can get up to 20 Mbps of speed with up to 1TB of data. Beyond the data limit, the speed reduces to 4 Mbps.

BSNL's Fibre Rural Home WiFi plan comes with up to 30 Mbps of speed with 1TB of data. This plan is only available for individuals living in the rural areas of the country.
