Broadband is not available in many parts of India.However BSNL, the largest telecommunication service provider has services across all India.So where broadband is not available ,GPRS comes to the rescue for Internet access.At present BSNL has suitable plans for GPRS access for both prepaid and post paid users.
In almost all over India now BSNL prepaid users do not need any activation scheme.They just need to put settings on their mobile and get started to Internet.The usage charges from them will be Rs. 0.02 per KB.
Post paid users have two plans to choose from.The first has Rs. 50 as monthly rental in which you get free 5MB download limit.Usage above 5MB will be charged as Rs. 0.02 per KB.Plan 2 for post paid users is an unlimited usage plan for Rs. 199 monthly.
If you have any other sources of Internet and you want GPRS just for some casual use on mobile, Rs. 50 plan looks sufficient, but if you rely only on GPRS for Internet it’s better to go for Rs. 199 plan.
However please visit BSNL site for details and plan changes which may occur from time to time,before subscribing.
