Bharti Airtel Slashes Roaming Rates

15 Feb, 2007, 2:10 pm IST | Sharon Khare |

Bharti Airtel has announced a reduction in roaming tariffs that are at par with existing local call tariffs. With effect from today, February 15, 2007, Airtel mobile users can avail lower roaming tariffs — all local calls will be charged at Rs. 1.40 per minute, STD calls at Rs. 2.40 per minute and incoming calls while roaming will be charged at Rs. 1.75 per minute.

These revised tariffs shave off 55% on local calls, 40% on STD calls and 56% on incoming calls while roaming. In addition, the monthly roaming rental of Rs. 49 has been waived off.

Sanjay Kapoor, Joint President, Mobile Services, Bharti Airtel said, "Every Indian travels across the country for work, to meet their social commitments or on vacation. We now usher in an era of simplified roaming tariffs wherein all Airtel mobile users will benefit from our seamless network and have the opportunity to make calls while traveling anywhere in India."
