Telecom operator Bharti Airtel has announced an innovative plan for its postpaid corporate customers. Dubbed the ‘Prepaid on Postpaid’, the plan offers prepaid data plan for postpaid corporate customers.
The plan is aimed at those postpaid corporate customers who are unable to access mobile internet on their corporate plans as their company policy does not allow them to subscribe to data plans or limits the use of mobile data.
Bharti Airtel has announced the launch of new free voice-calling packs exclusively for its broadband customers in the country. As of now, Airtel has introduced two plans which allow broadband customers to call on any network across the country for free.
The first plan costs Rs. 49/- per month and offers unlimited free local calls while the second plan costs Rs. 99/- per month and allows unlimited free STD as well as local calls. Users can make calls to any network across the country on both mobile phone and landline for free. It seems to be quite a good initiative from Airtel to foster its landline business in the country.
Airtel has announced the launch of its new platform named ‘Airtel Zero’. This platform as the name suggests, will enable the customers to access applications or websites at zero data charges. The data charges will be borne by marketers or the Mobile app makers and the customers who will sign up for this platform will be able to get the access of applications without paying for the data charges. According to Airtel, any big business or even a small one can make parts of their apps or full apps accessible to the customers. But will this platform really be beneficial for customers and small scale or big marketers? Read on to find out what’s our take on Airtel’s Zero platform.
Bharti Airtel has been under the hammer again as the Delhi High Court has pulled the stay order, which now permits the Department of Telecommunications to stop the operator from providing 3G services in seven circles where it does not hold the license to provide 3G. Airtel has now approached Supreme Court to challenge the order.
We recently brought to you the news of the Department of Telecom planning to fine Idea, Vodafone and Airtel for operating in 3G circles without a license. Back then, Airtel was going to be the company which was going to be worst hit and it seems that they’ve been pretty bad. The Delhi High Court has just lifted the stay Bharti Airtel had managed to get to prevent the penalty that was imposed on them.
