Coming Independence Day, Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) will revise its existing Data Tariff structure by introducing Uniform 2G & 3G Data Special Tariff Vouchers. To facilitate this initiative, all the existing 3G as well 2G Data vouchers will be withdrawn and completely new Vouchers will be introduced effective 15th August, 2013.
As per the information we have, with effect from 15th August, 2013 all existing 2G & 3G Data Vouchers will replace Uniform 2G and 3G Prepaid Data Vouchers for prepaid customers and the same will happen for postpaid customers effective 1st September, 2013. The customer profile in the NEW Unified Data Vouchers will be 3G with no speed restriction.
Under BSNL’s new Data Tariff Structure, 1GB of 2G/3G data voucher will come for Rs. 139 for prepaid customers and Rs. 125 for postpaid customers (service tax extra). Similarly, 2GB & 5GB packs would come for Rs. 251 and 561 respectively for Prepaid customers whereas for Postpaid customers, they would come bundled at a monthly rental of Rs. 225 and Rs. 501 respectively. All these packs/rentals would come with a validity of 30 days.
As of now BSNL has introduced only 30 days packs and it might launch more packs with differnet validity options in the near future after considering the market conditions. Here is the snapshot of the Data Tariff revision:

1. The Data Usage charges for “bsnlstream” will remain the same at Rs.0.25/MB.
