BSNL Voice-99 Plan: Economic Calling with National Calling.
Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) still serves its low-end users with Voice-99 prepaid plan, which costs only [?]99 and gives users a 15 days validity. This plan is intended to be used by users that value voice communication over data which means that the user is guaranteed of exceptional value in terms of unlimited local and STD both at home and as they roam around India, including in areas served by MTNL (Mumbai and Delhi).
BSNL Voice-99 Plan: Major Characteristics.
Price: 99
Validity: 15 calendar days
Voice Benefits: Unlimited local and STD calling to any network, has no daily or overall call limits-uncommon among low-cost plans. This is coupled with smooth calling when roaming within the country including in the MTNL area hence it is best suited to a traveler or one that moves around a lot.
Data Permit: It includes free 50 MB of fast data. Although it cannot be used in streaming or heavy browsing, it is adequate to perform simple activities such as checking messages, using WhatsApp, or using necessary applications.
In contrast to most of the unlimited call plans of non-government optical operators, who have hidden restrictions on Fair Usage Policy (FUP), like restricting the total number of monthly minutes, the Voice-99 plan of BSNL is pure unlimited call plan without restriction in the 15 days duration of the plan.
The plan is the most affordable voice-based plan in the BSNL portfolio since its cost per day at only 99 is the most affordable when it comes to 15 days.
Limitations to Note
The 50 MB data limit in the plan is very small according to the modern standards and can be used up in a few minutes when watching videos and using social media. Users who need frequent internet connectivity need to use this along with an additional data add-on or settle on a combo plan such as the 199 or 225 packs of BSNL, which have 2GB/day and above.
Also, once the validity of 15 days is over, the outgoing services will be blocked except when they are recharged, but calls coming in can be retained within a grace period as the standard policy by BSNL has.
Final Thoughts
BSNL Voice-99 plan is an example of an economical but rich product that can be used by consumers whose main focus is having premium and unrestricted nation-wide calling. It is an option that is workable in 2025, particularly with the coverage of the indigenous 4G rollout, although BSNL reinforces its network, notwithstanding the fact that nationwide roaming is inclusively applicable even in the territory of MTNL.
The 99/15-day Voice plan is an attractive option in the eyes of those who want simplicity, affordability, and real unlimited benefits of voice services of calling and receiving with India leading state-owned telecommunication provider.
