MTNL Mumbai has added some more value in its prepaid SIM 199 which was having a range of benefits. Along with other benefits this prepaid will offer Rs 99 additional talk value and 199 free SMS on its local network. Earlier benefits of this SIM are reduced call rates to Local MTNL @ 19p, other local @49p and STD @ 99p.
It also benefits SMS rates which are 25p for local and 50p for national This offer is definitely offering more value for money to the customers but having same call and SMS rates in prepaid SIM 99 will always
be a better selling product because of its lower price and keeping in mind presently almost every SIM of private operators are labeled at Rs 49 with lifetime validity with reduced call rates SIM 199 will be an expensive affair. Loop Mobile has also tried selling SIM with higher validity of 5years with lower call rates but it is yet to be seen if higher price inhibits it’s off take from the market.
