Airtel offers three calling-and-SMS-only plans at Rs 185, Rs 203 and Rs 206 with no data

Airtel has three recharge plans that may suit users who do not use the internet on their mobile phones and recharge only to make calls and send messages. The company has made available options priced at Rs 185, Rs 203 and Rs 206. None of the three plans offers internet data. All of them do offer unlimited calling, 300 SMS and free HelloTunes. Customers who do not need the internet can pick the plan that suits their usage. The real difference between the plans lies in price and validity.

Local, STD and roaming calls are unlimited in all three plans. Each plan also gives 300 SMS and free HelloTunes. Under HelloTunes, customers can set one HelloTune every 30 days at no additional charge.

Since the plans carry no internet data, they suit customers who do not need to use the internet on their phones. People who keep a separate SIM only for calling, or who use a basic phone, may want to consider them.

The Rs 185 plan is the cheapest of the three and has a validity of 28 days. During this period customers can make unlimited local, STD and roaming calls. It also comes with 300 SMS and free HelloTunes. It can be a good option for customers who do not use mobile internet. Those who recharge only to talk get these benefits at a comparatively lower price.

Those who want a 30-day recharge can take the Rs 203 plan. It offers 30 days of validity, unlimited calling, 300 SMS and free HelloTunes. This plan too has no internet data. Compared with the Rs 185 plan, paying Rs 18 more brings 2 extra days of validity. Those who want a full 30 days instead of 28 can consider this option.

Airtel's Rs 206 plan has a validity of 1 month. It too offers unlimited local, STD and roaming calling along with 300 SMS and free HelloTunes, but no internet data. The validity of this plan is given as 1 month rather than 30 days, and a period of 30 days and one of 1 month can differ. Customers should therefore check the plan's validity and benefits on Airtel's official website or app before recharging.

In sum, the Rs 185 plan suits those who want a 28-day recharge at low cost, the Rs 203 plan those who want 30 days of validity, and the Rs 206 plan is the option for 1 month of validity. Unlimited calling, 300 SMS and free HelloTunes are the same in all three. None of the plans has internet data, so customers who use mobile internet should keep this in mind when choosing a recharge. Choosing the right plan based on need, budget and validity will be beneficial.
