In addition to the long validity, the prepaid pack from state-owned telco BSNL offers unlimited internet (capped at 3GB per day) along with a quota of 100 SMS a day, free voice calls, and complimentary subscription to BSNL Tunes and Eros Now content. This makes the BSNL Rs 2,399 plan arguably the best long-term plan out there. 

After the recent price hike from all private leading telecom operators like Jio, Airtel, and Vodafone Idea (Vi, telecom users would have like to continue with a much more beneficial plan like the one provided by BSNL currently in the form of Rs 2,399 plan, which as we mentioned earlier is the only long term plan with more than 365 days validity. The news of it being discontinued though after this year, may upset a handful of BSNL fans.
