With telecom operators struggling to get the attention of consumers, the consumer stands to win amidst all the competition.
Cut throat competition amongst telecom players in the country has got cheap and affordable mobile and data usage plans for users. These companies offer several plans that suits your mobile and data usage. You just need to pick the right prepaid plan that allows you to call with the cheapest and most affordable mobile and data plans. Various operators are providing some really value for money prepaid plans that can be used in accordance with your requirements.
Out of these such plans, here is a list of some top cheapest calling and messaging plans.
These plans may differ in different circles, but difference is marginal.
Vodafone:
For just Rs 72, make all local calls at 30p/min and STD calls at 35p/min. Messaging costs Re 1 for local and additional 500 MB of 2G data free for a week. If you are more into making calls and like to check your mail once in a while and use whatsapp, this is the right plan for you.
Tata docomo lifetime plan:
Docomo charge just Rs 99 for this plan for a validity of lifetime, it allows the customers to send local SMS at Re 1/ SMS and make all local/STD calls at 1p/sec. With the companies slowly moving towards 1.2p/sec and per minute calling models, this one makes sense in the longer run.
BSNL unlimited plan:
At a cost of Rs 33 for 6 months, subscriber is allowed to send local SMS at 50p/SMS and make all local/national calls at 1p/sec. This pack is named as Teen Pack, and is available in Chennai only for the time being.
Aircel teen pack:
Make all local SMS at just 1p/SMS and make all local/STD calls as per your original plan, valid for a lifetime and costs Rs 45. Seems a decent buy but the issue might be the limited coverage of Aircel's network in India.
