Vodafone Idea Recent Postpaid Plans Announcement a One Way Attempt at Bettering Company Finances

If there is one telecom operator in the industry right now which has been handed the short end of the stick, it is Vodafone Idea. The company has been through a lot lately, and things do not seem to be stopping from progressively getting worse for the telco. Also, the fears of Vodafone Idea collapsing are becoming real for all the stakeholders in the company. In such a situation, it is likely that Vodafone Idea will get desperate for breath, and in a move on those lines, the telco has made a tariff hike in a somewhat proxied manner. Although the tariff hike is not really apparent for a lot of subscribers because of the way in which it has been done, but still it can be said that it will have some impact on the subscribers and maybe on the finances of the company as well.

What the Tariff Hike Actually Means

Firstly, we will have to explain the nature of the tariff hike that has been made by Vodafone Idea. The plans that have received the hike indirectly are the Vodafone Idea REDX postpaid plans, and if you do not know, the Vodafone Idea REDX Postpaid plans are a premium offering that requires the subscriber to spend north of Rs 1,000 every month on their bill. As such, making a tariff hike on an already premium postpaid plan has saved Vodafone Idea from the wrath of prepaid subscribers, which are comparatively low paying and many in number. Also, another thing to note is that the hike has not really been made in the postpaid plan directly, as in the actual price of the postpaid plan starts at Rs 1,099 only, but it is the add-on fee that has been very subtly changed.
