Popular Airtel Recharge Plans: What You Get In Rs 149, Rs 199, Rs 349, Rs 399

Amid high competition in the telecom sector, Bharti Airtel has come up with new offers for its customers. Bharti Airtel, India's largest telecom company, provides its customers with a number of options to recharge their prepaid Airtel connections. Aggressive data pricing along with free voice calling by new entrant Reliance Jio - which offers telecom services under brand name Jio - has stirred up competition in the telecom services market with the incumbent players rapidly reviewing their offerings, say some analysts. Some of Airtel's prepaid packs that provide voice and data benefits include STVs or special tariff vouchers priced at Rs. 149, Rs. 199, Rs. 349 and Rs. 399.
