  • Airtel said it will increase prices of its services from December. This means increase in prices of Airtel postpaid and prepaid plans.
  • The increase in prices will make business in India viable, said the company.
  • Hours earlier, Vodafone Idea had made similar announcement, saying prices would go up from December 1.
that it would increase the prices of its services from December. Airtel’s announcement comes hours after Vodafone said something similar, although Vodafone Idea gave a specific date of December 1 after which the prices of its services will go up.
In other words, consumers who use Airtel or Vodafone Idea services, whether they are on postpaid plans or are using prepaid plans, should be willing to pay slightly more for the services from these two companies. The Vodafone Idea and Airtel price hike comes weeks after Jio had also increased the effective tariff for its users, asking them to pay extra for cellular calls.

"Airtel will increase price offerings in the month beginning December," an Airtel spokesperson said. "While continuing to provide affordable tariffs to customers, it would balance the needs of the company to remain viable and thereby continue to invest in the much needed digital infrastructure and maintain the quality standards required by our customers."
