While telecom operators are strongly resisting the removal of roaming on cellular networks, they have been introducing a host of offers to entice their customers.

Aircel has announced a new roaming recharge RC 299 for its customers in Mumbai. The recharge priced at Rs. 299 would offer Aircel subscribers 350 minutes (almost 6 hours) of incoming or outgoing calls on Aircel roaming network across India for free. After exhausting the free minutes, customers will be charged at 1 paise/sec for incoming and 1.5 paise/sec for outgoing.

Speaking about the new offer, Harish Sharma, Regional Business Head, Aircel, said, “Although being a late entrant in the Mumbai circle, Aircel has witnessed a remarkable growth and we attribute it to the customers who adopted our extra value for money products. We truly cherish the relationship with our customers and RC 299, which is first of its kind in Mumbai, will offer our customers convenience and enable them to stay connected during their travel anywhere in the country. This summer holiday Aircel customers can enjoy “Extra” value and low rates through our best value for money products and services.”
