If you are a post paid user (Any connection)with medium usage then read on...
I have a RPG Post Paid connection with 299 monthly rental with tax it comes to Rs 350 per month. I usually make calls in the range of Rs 100 to 150 which comes to total bill of value between Rs 500 to 600.
My current expense with RPG Postpaid:
Monthly rent with tax - 299 (rent) + 50 (tax) = Rs 350
Calls to mobile (1 rs / min) - 30 calls of 2 mins duration = Rs 60
Calls to LAN line (2 rs / min) - 20 calls of 2 mins duration = Rs 40
SMS (1 rupee) - - 20 SMS = Rs 20
Total bill value for a month = Rs 470
Expense with Airtel One Year Pre paid card:
First you have to buy a starter pack (pre paid – 250 rs ) and then recharge for one year at rs. 3240.
Starter pack (talk value = 50 rs) = Rs 250
One year recharge coupon (talk value Rs 2870) = Rs 3240

Total expense using a pre paid = Rs 3490
Let's calculate my expense using the prepaid Airtel option:
Calls to mobile (2.40 rs / min) - 30 calls of 2 mins duration = Rs 144
Calls to LAN line (2.40 rs / min) - 20 calls of 2 mins duration = Rs 96
SMS (1 rupee) - 20 SMS = Rs 20
Total talk value expense in a month = Rs 260
So, talk value of (2870 + 50 refer above) 2920 will last for 2920 / 260 = 11.2 months
Total bill value for POST PAID for (11.2 months)= 11.2 * rs 470 = Rs 5264
So total expense USING AIRTEL PREPAID = 3240 + 250 = Rs 3490
Total expens with Post Paid = Rs 5264
SAVING WITH PRE PAID FOR ONE YEAR = Rs 1774
The bottom line is IF YOUR POST PAID BILL IS AROUND 300 TO 700 RS THEN SWITCH TO AIRTEL PREPAID AND RECHARGE FOR 1 YEAR you will save anything between Rs 2000 to 500
Hope it helps…
