BSNL Revises Combo STV Recharges to Offer Additional Talktime

[Vikas Jadhav]

The state-run telecom operator is now on a revision mode. After the recent revision of Broadband plans, the BSNL has set its strategy to offer additional talk time and data up to 4GB on certain combo STV recharges.

Starting from the popular ₹175 STV, the BSNL has packed extra talktime on ₹219, ₹252, and ₹402 STV. The ₹175 STV recharge pack will now include ₹200 talktime along with 0.5GB of data. Similarly, the ₹219 STV recharge will get ₹250 talktime and 0.5GB of data with a validity period of 60 days.

BSNL ₹402 STV Offers ₹600 Talktime:

On a similar note, the ₹252 STV recharge pack will now get ₹350 talktime (earlier ₹200) and 2GB of mobile data. This is really a good deal for BSNL subscribers.

The largest pack to get a revision by BSNL is ₹402 STV recharge pack. It now offers a whooping ₹600 talktime and 4GB of high-speed data with a validity of 60 days.

Additional 10% Talktime on Top-Ups:

Leaving combo STV’s aside, the BSNL has also offered extra ₹30 talktime on ₹300 top-up. Similarly, in a bid to encourage top-ups, the BSNL has started providing additional 10% benefit on selective days.

For example, on Thursday, Friday and Saturday one gets an extra 10% talktime on ₹250 top-up. Similarly, on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, the BSNL offers an extra 10% talktime on ₹500 and ₹600 top-ups.

Additional 10% Talktime on Top-Ups:

The popular Plan Vaarshika 1699 gets an extension. It offers unlimited calling (local, STD and roaming) daily 100 SMS and unlimited data with speed restricted to 80 kbps after 2GB per day. Similarly, the Plan Vaarshika Plus 2099 offers 4GB daily data and the above-mentioned benefits with 365 days validity.

Speaking on this occasion, Mr V Sundar, CGM, Telangana Telecom Circle, said that the state has more than 487 Wi-Fi hotspots. By the end of February, one can expect an additional 423 hotspots in the state. Through these Wi-Fi hotspots, the BSNL subscribers can access daily 4GB data with a max speed of 10 Mbps.

Incidentally, the state-run telecom operator is very keen on establishing itself with the best value for money tariff plans. However, the lack of a 4G network is troubling it a lot. Hope the BSNL 4G commercial launch happens soon.
