Bharti Airtel already launched Rs 279 prepaid plan that comes with daily data benefits including life insurance cover worth Rs 4 lakh valid for 28 days. The company has now introduced another new plan of Rs 179 that comes with life insurance cover of Rs 2 lakh offered by Bharti AXA Life Insurance validity of 28 days. But the newly launched prepaid plan does not include daily data benefits. Shashwat Sharma, Chief Marketing Officer, Bharti Airtel said, “Our innovative prepaid bundles with built-in term insurance plans have got a positive response from customers and this has encouraged us to make the solution even deeper to the masses. The Rs. 179 recharge will offer one of the simplest and most accessible platforms to hundreds of millions of Indians to financially secure themselves and their families while staying connected on Airtel’s world-class network.” Earlier the company used to offer two prepaid plans of Rs 249 and Rs 599 that comes with the same benefits but after the tariff revision, the company now offers Rs 279 and Rs 179 prepaid plans with the same benefits. The newly launched Rs 179 prepaid plan offers unlimited calling to any network within the country, 2GB of monthly internet data, 300 free SMS as well as a term life cover of Rs 2 lakh from Bharti AXA Life Insurance. The plan comes with a validity of 28 days. The insurance cover is available to all Airtel customers aged between 18 years to 54 years and requires no paperwork or medical test. The policy or Certificate of Insurance will be digitally delivered to the customers. If requested by the customers the company can also provide a physical copy of the insurance to the subscribers. Furthermore, the company says, “The entire process is digitally delivered in a matter of few minutes at any Airtel retail store or on Airtel Thanks app. Airtel has over one million retail outlets, and its mobile network covers over 786,000 non-census towns and villages across India.” On the other hand Rs 279 prepaid plan includes 1.5GB of daily internet data, unlimited calling to any network, 100 free SMS per day with Rs 4 lakh life insurance cover valid for 28 days.
