After the tariff hikes, while the long-term plans are still available, they come for a different price than they used to. If you are thinking of recharging with a long-term prepaid plan post tariff hikes, then there are a few great options available from Bharti Airtel, Reliance Jio, and Vodafone Idea. The reason we are excluding Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) from the list is that there is no PAN-India 4G coverage provided by the state-run telco.
