Airtel's fixed-line broadband customers will have to shell out more for Internet services from April, as the service provider has hiked the charges by up to 40 percent in certain plans.
The operator has informed its customers that the increase in broadband rates would be effective from their next billing cycle in April.

Due to an increase in input cost, the rent will be revised from Rs. 250 to Rs. 349 with effect from 17 April 2014, the company said in a communication to a customer.

In another communication to a customer, the company mentioned that from April 23, the rental will be increased from Rs. 850 to Rs. 949.

The company in the plan also informed customers about increasing minimum speed of broadband to 512Kbps from 256Kbps.

When contacted, an Airtel spokesperson said, "Tariff rationalisation is a continuous process and a function of market dynamics. This price revision of our broadband plans is in line with the increasing input costs that have a direct impact on the final prices."
