Airtel discontinues its ₹2,398 prepaid plan: Here are alternatives you can consider

Airtel has stopped its long-term ₹2,398 prepaid plan and it is no longer listed on the website. The ₹2,398 plan came with a validity of 365 days, 1.5GB daily high-speed data and unlimited voice calls.

The slightly more expensive, ₹2,498 prepaid plan is still active for Airtel and this comes with the same 365-day validity, unlimited voice calls as well.
