Calls from Reliance FWP to all Reliance phones are already free under various prepaid schemes. The company has also introduced a special reduced tariff for calls from FWP to fixed lines between Mumbai and Delhi. The new rate is Rs1.90 with an increased pulse rate of 60 seconds as against the old rate of Rs1.10 with a 30-second pulse. The new rate per minute works out to Rs.1.90, down from the erstwhile Rs2.20 S.P.
