Airtel announced that its postpaid tariffs will rise by as much as 10% under newly introduced plans, according to the Assam Tribune.
Airtel, India’s leading telecom operator, said it will increase postpaid subscription fees under its upcoming plan revisions. The hike can reach up to ten percent, the company indicated in a statement referenced by the Assam Tribune.
The adjustment applies to new postpaid offerings that will replace existing bundles. While the exact rollout date was not disclosed, the move follows a broader industry trend of price revisions amid rising operational costs.
Consumer groups have previously warned that tariff hikes could strain household budgets, but Airtel has not provided details on how the increase will be structured across different price tiers. The company urges customers to review the revised plan terms once they are published.
