Vodafone's Rs. 597 Prepaid Plan Offers Unlimited Calling, Data Benefits

Vodafone India has introduced a new prepaid recharge plan priced at Rs 597, which offers unlimited calling and data benefits. Vodafone's new plan is seen as to counter Mukesh Ambani-owned Reliance Jio's packs and Bharti Airtel's offers. The telecom sector in the country has witnessed high competition since the launch of Reliance Jio in September 2016, pushing the sector towards consolidation. Last month, the Department of Telecom (DoT) gave final approval to the merger of Vodafone India and Idea Cellular.
