If you are a BSNL user, then there is good news for you, based on where you are. The telecom operator has announced two data-only plans priced at Rs Rs 693 and Rs 1,212 and validity of 365 days. With these recharges, users don't get SMS or voice calls, so you will have to recharge separately for those. The two plans – Rs 693 and Rs 1,212 bring with them 300GB and 500GB data respectively. There is no daily usage limit and the users can consume data as and when they like within the validity period. As of writing this story, the plan is available in Andhra Pradesh & Telangana circles according to TelecomTalk. You should use the BSNL app or website to check if the plan is available in your circle.
BSNL also recently launched the Rs 551 plan that offered users 5GB data per day and a validity of 90 days. This means the user gets a total of 450GB of data.
