Bharti Airtel will soon be coming up with a yearly tariff plan of Rs 995, which sits nicely alongside the already existing Rs 3,999 prepaid tariff plan. The Rs 995 tariff plan is already available for select users in select circles, and it offers benefits for 360 days, reports Telecomtalks.

With this plan, Airtel is offering benefits of unlimited voice calls, 100 SMS per day and 1GB data per month. But it will be a segmented plan from Airtel, and the benefits will differ with the customer to customer and circle to circle.

Airtel might make it an open market plan in the coming weeks to overcome the threat of Reliance Jio, said the report.

Further, the report said that Airtel’s Rs 995 tariff plan will provide users with unlimited voice calls including roaming calls, 100 SMS per day and 1GB data per month in some circles. And in some circles, the same tariff plan will offer unlimited voice calls (roaming calls too) and 1GB data per month without any SMS benefit. And there are changes that the plan will offer only unlimited voice calls in some circles.

As per Airtel’s website, voice calls are unlimited without any daily or weekly FUP limit as the company has already removed the FUP limit. So with this plan, voice calls will be unlimited on-par with Reliance Jio’s offering.
