Airtel has launched two new prepaid plans for those users who only use voice calls and SMS services. Following TRAI’s instructions, telecom companies were asked to introduce such plans which are specifically designed keeping in mind those who use keypad phones.
The price of these new plans is Rs 1,849 and Rs 469. The special thing is that no data benefits are being given in these.

Validity: 365 days
Benefits:
- Unlimited Calling

This plan is perfect for those who want long validity. It can be purchased from Airtel app, offline stores and third-party platforms.
Rs 469 prepaid plan
