BSNL currently offers the most affordable recharge plans to its customers. The government telecom company did not even hike the tariff last year. While private telecom companies had increased the price of their plans, BSNL continued to offer cheap plans. At present, we are going to tell you about the company's long-term validity plan here.
Government telecommunication company BSNL (Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited) has this Rs 1198 prepaid plan available for its customers. This is one of the most appealing offers with annual validity. Because this BSNL Rs 1198 plan has a 365-day service validity. You can guess why BSNL is providing this yearly offer at such a low cost. In reality, this offer is for those who are willing to get service validity at an economical cost without considering other advantages offered by the offer.
The Rs 1198 plan provided by BSNL offers 300 minutes of calling, 3GB data, and 30 SMS every month. All these benefits get renewed automatically for 12 months. The user has the advantage of keeping the cost of the plan at an inexpensive level along with getting the facility of yearly validity.
BSNL is currently rolling out 4G for its users across the country. The company plans to shift to 5G after the rollout of 1 lakh 4G sites. So far, BSNL has confirmed that it has rolled out about 75,000 sites (on air) and deployed more than 80,000 sites. By the end of June 2025, BSNL will meet its target of 1 lakh 4G sites.
If you want to recharge with this plan, it is available to users across the country. BSNL is currently the most affordable telecom service provider and was the only telecom company that did not increase tariffs in July 2024. BSNL also reported a net profit in the October-December 2024 quarter. However, it remains to be seen whether this profitable trend will continue in the coming quarters. At the moment, despite adding customers for a few months after the tariff hike, BSNL is now losing customers to private telcos.
