BSNL Extends Validity on ₹997 Plan: 164 Days of Benefits
The state-owned telecom operator BSNL has introduced a special promotional offer on one of its most popular recharge plans. With private telecom companies steadily increasing their tariffs, BSNL is aiming to attract more users by adding extra value to its ₹997 plan. According to an official announcement from the company, customers who opt for this plan will now receive an additional 14 days of validity at no extra cost.
Limited-Time Offer Until March 31
This promotional benefit is available only for a limited period. Customers who complete their recharge before March 31, 2026, will enjoy a total validity of 164 days instead of the standard 150 days. This means a single recharge can cover nearly five and a half months of service, allowing users to stay connected without worrying about frequent top-ups.
What the Plan Includes
The ₹997 plan comes packed with a range of features designed to meet everyday communication and entertainment needs:
- Unlimited Voice Calls: Subscribers can make unlimited calls to any network across India, along with free national roaming.
- High-Speed Data: Users receive 2GB of high-speed data per day. With the extended validity, the total data allowance increases to 328GB — an extra 28GB compared to the standard plan.
- Daily SMS and Entertainment: The plan also includes 100 free SMS per day and complimentary access to BiTV, which offers live TV channels and OTT content.
Affordable Data Add-On Available
For users who need additional data beyond the daily limit, BSNL has introduced a budget-friendly data pack. At just ₹16, customers can get 4GB of high-speed data with a 1-day validity. This works out to approximately ₹4 per gigabyte, making it an economical choice for heavy data users.
This move by BSNL comes at a time when consumers are increasingly looking for cost-effective telecom options. By offering extended validity and substantial data benefits, the company aims to strengthen its position in the competitive Indian telecom market.
