TRAI Launches Affordable Recharge Plans: 365 Days Validity At Just Rs. 10 (Suggested)

The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) has published new rules to reduce costs and enhance the user experience of telecom services. Moreover, It helps consumers, especially those who depend heavily on basic calling and SMS or use secondary SIM cards for specialized functions like calls and SMS. Furthermore, the Telecom Consumers Protection (Twelfth Amendment) Regulations, 2024, were released on Monday. These include a number of significant modifications.



The regulations include cheap Rs 10 recharge plans with 365 days of validity and mandatory ‘voice-only’ plans for dual SIM users, which is very useful.

TRAI has issued an issue mandating the launch of different Special Tariff Vouchers for voice and SMS services. Again, this move will help the 2G feature phone subscribers – particularly the elderly as well as the rural masses – to avail of reasonably cheap recharge plans as per their requirements.

TRAI further intends to benefit users by increasing the validity of STVs from the current 90 days to 365 days. In addition, Significant amendments will be made to ensure users enjoy long-term affordability and convenience.

To change the recharge process, TRAI has done away with a colour-coding system for physical vouchers, making it an easier task to categorize into recharges. Moreover, This reflects the growing dependence upon online recharge methods with a focus on introducing cheap recharge plans.

UPDATE #1: Jio, Airtel to roll out Rs 10 recharge plans following TRAI's order

UPDATE #2: Jio.com is showing a ₹10 postpaid plan?

without any doubt it will be double the current price...

SC is not to be blamed. Government didnt defend.

SC and Govt both are/were impotent, when 90% of govt official can't even spell technology let alone understand it, this is what eventually happens.

Forget SC on telecom. Sialdah court said 'The RG Kar rape is not rarest of the rare to go for death penalty', I mean pretty chill way to accept doctors getting raped is normal and accepted in India. F indian courts and judges.

Eitherway nothings gonna change, Indians love to get F'ed by govt and feel happy about it.

We had strong competition, we had many companies. But we as a country got fooled by politicians and now we have an oilgopoly.

yes once we had 10-12 operators in every circle. Then the politically motivated fake 2G report happened. Interesting that the very basis on which the so called 2G scam report was made is happening again with satellite telephony spectrum, with govt not opting for auction route, but the great "patriots" who went to street at that time demanding action against the so called 2G scam are now all sleeping quietly.

The last death penalty from Kolkata itself is now under question. Dhananjoy Chatterjee was executed by hanging in Alipore Jail, Kolkata, on 14 August 2004. He was charged in 1990 for the crimes of rape and murder of Hetal Parekh, an 18-year-old school-girl. The case was decided on the basis of "circumstantial evidence". However, now more and more people are coming around to the belief that it was possibly a case of honor killing by the family.

how many SIM your family has and how much are you paying annually?

4 sim. 150-200 per sim. was happy with that. But recently they changed data only plan validity to 30 days instead of till plan expiry (1 yr) so it added 160 rs more monthly for 2 sims (other 2 dont use data that much).

Jio 499 (1+3) plan. Total mthly bill 1061, you can easily get 10% discount by either airtel thanks or Amz Rupay offer. So annual 11450 for 4 SIM or about 220/SIM every 28 days. If you can use Pay with Rewards and have points, it can also be 20%.
You get unlimited 5G data on all 4 SIM and total 90 GB 4G data per mth across 4 SIM, without any daily or per SIM limit.

Alternatively, Airtel 1199 plan (1+3), with Airtel card, annaul cost would be about 14K or 268/SIM every 28 days. 100 GB shared data with upto 200 GB unused data rollover.

It was not politically motivated report but curroption against individuals was not "proved in court", that's all. Court cancelled licenses because of widespread curroption but individuals escaped, as it happens in every case.

if not auctioning spectrum is "corruption" then why there is no protestor now against the same corruption in case of satellite telephony spectrum.
