Jio Effect: Vodafone launches new Prepaid Plan of Rs 599 to compete with Airtel Rs 597 Prepaid Plan

The war in the telecom space looks never-ending. And this brings a piece of good news for the prepaid users. This time it is Vodafone, which has introduced a new Rs 599 prepaid recharge plan. This comes to compete with Airtel's Rs 597 prepaid plan. This is a mark of the times, as Reliance Jio, Airtel and Vodafone-Idea are struggling hard to compete with each other in terms of the pricing for prepaid and postpaid tariffs and retain their customers.

Vodafone:

The Vodafone Rs 599 recharge plan offers 6GB of 3G/4G data and comes with a validity of 180 days. Users will also get unlimited local, STD and roaming voice calls. The plan brings 1800 free SMS for the duration of the validity. This plan also includes the subscription for the Vodafone Play value-add service, for streaming live TV, movies and TV shows.

Airtel:

The Airtel Rs 597 plan also offers 6GB of data and gives a validity period of 168 days. Airtel is also offering unlimited voice calls for local, STD and roaming calling in India. With this recharge, Airtel is providing subscriptions for Airtel TV Premium, Wynk Music and Norton Mobile Security.

Both these plans are not meant for heavy 3G/4G data users, as the 6GB data that each offer brings is your allocation for the entire validity period, and is not on the daily basis statistic. This offer may be good for those who want the ease of a long-term recharge and don't the pain of remembering to recharge their prepaid mobile connection every month.
