Airtel may widen base tariff hike

"It's only a matter of time before they make it applicable in all circles," the executive said on the condition of anonymity.

Indian telecom coverage area is split into 22 circles, mostly aligned with the states' boundaries.

The Sunil Mittal-promoted company raised the entry-level tariff to 155 in Odisha and Haryana on 21 November, followed by Karnataka, Bihar, the North-East, Himachal Pradesh, Andhra Pradesh, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh-west on 24 January; and Delhi, Mumbai, Tamil Nadu, Chennai, Uttar Pradesh-east, West Bengal, Punjab, Jammu and Kashmir, and Assam a day later.

"In line with our focus on providing a better customer experience, we have discontinued the metered tariff and introduced an entry-level plan of 155 with unlimited voice, IGB of data and 300 SMS. Customers can now use this plan with no constraints. We believe this plan will provide greater flexibility, convenience and superior value," an Airtel spokesperson said in response to a query.
