Airtel rolls out tariff plans for kids! Here’s what you need to know about ‘Add on Connections’

A tariff plan for children. That is how India’s telecom major is planning to woo Indian subscribers.

Airtel has allowed its postpaid users to add new ‘child members’ to the network with ‘Add on Connections’, a report by TelecomTalk said on Tuesday.

Under this scheme, a single Add on Connection for Rs 799 postpaid plan can be availed by a parent and they can add a single person as ‘add on’ to this plan.

The Rs 799 plan also offers customers unlimited local STD and incoming roaming calls. It also offers 3G/ 4G data with a rollover feature for those who do not use their data packs completely. A total of 50GB data is available to customers.

The ‘add on’ or child member will get unlimited voice calls and data benefits will be shared between both users, the report added.

However, Airtel has not specified the fair usage policy for the plan.

More add on connections are available for Airtel’s Rs 1,199 plan. A maximum of two add on connections with all benefits included can be shared between three people under this plan.
