Exclusive: Airtel to Offer 3G Speed at 2G Price
Country’s largest cellular carrier Bharti Airtel has joined the 3G
tariff war, as the company started to offer 3G speed on 2G packs. As far
as we know, Airtel is testing this in Delhi circle with selected customers, and with user feedback Airtel may go in the similar way.
It seems Reliance Communications has taken the charge of changing the 3G market dynamics. Rcom’s try to bring data revolution by offering 3G speed at 2G Price was unique, though many analysts did not welcome the move. However BSNL moved Reliance’s way, and launched unified 2G and 3G data plans across India.
When BSNL launched such plans, with its pan India coverage (Delhi & Mumbai via MTNL), no 3G operator can ignore this. I believe in coming days all 3G players – Vodafone, Idea, Tata Docomo will offer unified data plans.
