BSNL Rs 1,699 plan which is a more than an annual plan with its total validity being 425 days could w come to an end as far as its applicability is concerned.

Rs 1699 plan

Incumbent telcos such as Bharti Airtel and Vodafone-idea have already confirmed that y would be rising mobile phone tariff from 1 December. Reliance Jio would also be effecting an increase. w, BSNL is also rumoutred to be following a similar path, but is still unconfirmed. At this juncture, newer messs from BSNL again indicating that Rs 1699 has been, all while, a limited-time only initiative, could end soon for certain circles.

As far as its benefits are concerned, Rs 1,699 scheme offers free-unlimited calls, 2 GB internet per day, and 100 free SMS messs for free on a daily basis. se benefits are certainly eye-catchy. But state-led telco is yet to fully deploy 4G in India. In case 4G comes out relatively early, it could be a total win for customers. Full-fledged BSNL 4G services are slated to begin soon in India. Hence, subscribers could w avail Rs 1,699 plan and reby potentially get to beat monthly recharge hassle.

Also, IUC charges are all set to be done away with from January 2020 in case TRAI has its way. But regulator recently released a consultation paper seeking industry insight on a rollout at a later date (or retaining earlier date). Operators such as Reliance Jio and Broadband India Forum (BIF) have already opposed any such move to defer date of implementation of zero termination charge (also called Bill-and-Keep) regime.
