Nowadays we are getting access to high-speed internet and unlimited calling at reasonable rates, seeing this Vodafone has introduced two new prepaid packs that offer unlimited voice calls and high-speed data access for a validity of 28 days. Part of Vodafone's Super Plans, the new INR 158 pack offers unlimited voice calls (250 minutes/ day and 1,000 minutes/ week), and 1GB 4G/ 3G data per day, with a validity of 28 days. The second pack which is priced at INR 151 offers unlimited voice calls and a total of 1GB 4G/ 3G data with a validity of 28 days.Currently, these packs are only available for Kerala region. Although, the Rs. 158 prepaid pack is just INR 7 more expensive than the INR 151 pack, but it offers total benefits of 28GB data compared to just 1GB on the other one.

These packs are competing many other similar packs introduced by other companies, such as Reliance Jio's INR 149 pack that offers unlimited voice calls, 100 SMS messages per day, and 1.5GB data per day with a validity of 28 days. It also takes on Airtel's INR 169 pack that offers unlimited calls, 100 SMS messages per day, and 1GB data per day with a validity of 28 days for Airtel partnered 4G handsets and a validity of 14 days for other handsets and many other.

On the other hand, Airtel has also updated its prepaid packs, one is of INR 98 and other is of INR 93. The updated recharge pack from Airtel will provide 5 GB of 4G/3G data for 28 days. According to a report, the pack is still costly as compared to other budget data packs provided by the company, as it does not include unlimited calling or SMS service. This is the reason why this pack is unrolled only for data-heavy prepaid users only. This pack is currently available only in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana circles.

Airtel is also offering 28 GB on the recharge of Rs 149, which also includes calling and SMS. The price of 1 GB data comes to Rs 5 in INR 149 plan, whereas on INR 98 data pack, 1 GB of data costs Rs 20. The INR 98 pack however seems more than enough for the Andhra Pradesh and Telangana circles, as the same pack offers 3 GB of data in Kerala circle and 1 GB in other cities. Another pack that provides unlimited calls, 1GB data and is valid for 28 days is priced at INR 93 in other circles, this pack provides a validity of 10 days in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana.

Now users of these plans can enjoy these benefits and can interact or stay more connected to their loved ones, at reasonable prices.
