Reliance Communications introduces 4G app-to-app calling offer starts at Re 1 for 300 minutes of talktime


Reliance Communications, with an aim to curb the issue of call drops has introduced its 4G app-to-app calling offer called ‘Call Drops Se Chutkaara’ (freedom from call drops) for customers in Delhi NCR. The offer is available at an introductory price of Re one for 300 minutes of talk-time for 30 days. The offer will be valid for a trial month of September only. After the one-month trial period, customers will be able to buy a data pack for Rs 39 that will give 200MB of data which “will be sufficient to make 300 minutes of talking”.

“We want Delhi to speak on data. Delhi NCR will get an India-first offer of 300 minutes of app-to-app talking. This will be valid for 30 days at just Re one — 10 minutes a day for 30 days,” said Gurdeep Singh, Chief Executive Officer, Consumer Business, Reliance Communications. The new plan will enable Reliance 4G LTE customers to make calls worldwide through various popular data-based apps such as Whatsapp, FB Messenger, Skype, Google Hangouts, imo and Viber. Nine out of 10 smartphone users are on apps, said Gurdeep Singh. He also added that the company is evaluating its options regarding 700 MHz of the upcoming spectrum auction.

Reliance Communications and Reliance Jio services recently announced agreements for trading and sharing of scarce airwaves, or radio frequency spectrum, in the 800 MHz band, covering virtually the entire country. A roaming agreement is also on cards. The agreement for trading involves a change in spectrum allotment from the Anil Ambani-led Reliance Communications to Mukesh Ambani-led Reliance Jio over nine circles and that for sharing between the two companies covers 17 circles, the two entities said.
