Unlimited Voice Calls, 1GB Data Per Day: Latest Airtel Recharges

Bharti Airtel, India's largest telecom operator has introduced new data and calling offers to counter Relaince Jio's aggressive pricing. In its latest special tariff packages, Airtel is offering unlimited voice calls along with 1 GB of mobile data over a validity of 28 days in a recharge pack priced at Rs. 199, according to its website - airtel.in. The Rs. 199 Airtel recharge pack, it noted, includes both local and STD voice calls. Free voice calling and aggressively priced 4G mobile data by new entrant Reliance Jio - which offers telecom services under brand Jio - has led to revision of offers and new announcements by incumbent telecom operators, some analysts say.

Bharti Airtel has released recharge packs priced at Rs. 53, Rs. 60, Rs. 88, Rs. 90, Rs. 149, Rs. 199 and Rs. 399. Here are the important details about the Rs 199 pack and the Rs 399 pack.
