Bharti Airtel Ltd.

Bharti Airtel has increased the price of its 1GB 2G data plan by 25%. As per the revision, Airtel 2G customers have to pay Rs 125 for 1GB of data, which was Rs 100 earlier. The entity has also decided to increase both data and voice prices in the future in line with the rise in cost structure. For leading mobile operators, 2G data revenue is 3-4 per cent of total revenue, so to recover the increasing cost, it has taken this step.
