The company aims to provide better and more affordable service to its customers with Reliance Jio round the corner.

 

Vodafone India has recently announced the slashing of data rates of its 3G and 4G Internet packs for pre-paid customers. The company has also offered upto 67 per cent more benefits for the same price with an aim of providing additional value to its customers and thus, enable them to enjoy their mobile Internet experience.

Vodafone, in a statement, said that the move will make the Internet more affordable for customers who use mobile Internet in a limited way and encourage first time users to come online.

“We are democratizing data by making it more affordable and accessible. This is key to driving usage and encouraging first time users to come online. We are confident that this move of offering up to 67 percent additional data benefit on select pre-paid packs, will facilitate in faster adoption of data and its better usage,” ET report quoted Sandeep Kataria, Director-Commercial, Vodafone India as saying.

Similarly, the Rs 449 3G/4G pack now offers 50 percent more data by increasing the data benefit to 3 GB from 2 GB. The Rs 999 3G/4G pack will now offer 10 GB data, offering 54 percent more benefits.
