stiwari 2 Report post Posted March 24, 2011 Reliance has launched pan India truely unlimited internet at Rs169 for speed upto speed of up to 153 kbps.It is called city unlimited.They have reduced USB modem cost to Rs 1099 MoneyControl.com Thursday, March 24, 2011 at 16:39 Reliance Communications, India's telecommunications service provider, has unveiled its initiative 'City Unlimited', which comes with unlimited data usage and internet access, within the same city with wireless internet speed of up to 153 kbps. These cities, where this plan is available, are mapped to over 1700 STD codes. This plan will provide internet access for billions of Indians across 24,000 towns and 600,000 villages. In the largest roll out of affordable wireless internet service across the length and breadth of the country, Reliance has slashed the cost of Reliance Netconnect USB stick modem to Rs 1099/- and offers unlimited data usage at affordable tariff of just Rs 169/- only for prepaid users. This plan has been launched across the country except the top 1000 towns. Talking about this initiative, Mahesh Prasad, President of Wireless Business at Reliance Communications, said, “The availability of internet service and the initial hardware cost has been a deterrent to drive the internet penetration in our country." "Internet penetration all over India stands at less than 2% and although driving internet penetration across the country beyond major cities is a key priority for us, affordable internet penetration will also enable economic prosperity for our countrymen. Reliance has once again rewritten the rules of the industry by offering an unbeatable proposition in terms of coverage, quality, service breadth and, above all, value for money," he added. The service plan is targeted at small and medium businesses, students and homemakers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
