Although a small base, postpaid subscribers contribute significantly to a telco's overall revenues.
Just three days after Reliance Jio introduced a new set of post-paid family plans called Jio Plus with 'unlimited' 5G data, rival Bharti Airtel has followed the leader. On Friday, Bharti Airtel announced the launch of 'unlimited' data for subscribers availing its 5G plus services, currently live in over 270 cities.
The offer will be available to all postpaid customers and those pre-paid customers with a data plan of Rs 239 and above, Airtel said in a statement.
The move is expected to allow Airtel to align its 5G data offering with Reliance Jio, which is already offering unlimited 5G data as part of its Jio 5G Welcome' offer. This is available only on Jio prepaid or postpaid plans that cost ₹239 or above. A few weeks ago, Jio had launched a '5G Upgrade' data plan for ₹61.
