"Four models from Samsung's Galaxy J-series including J2 (2017), J5 Prime, J7 Prime and J7 Pro will be available with cashback offers, bringing down their effective prices," Airtel said in a statement.

These devices will come bundled with Airtel's recharge pack worth Rs 199 that offers 1GB data per day and unlimited calling.
