Vodafone Idea has announced a tariff hike, increasing the prices of its popular plans by up to 25%.- The revised tariffs will come into effect from November 25.
- Here are the new tariffs from
Vodafone Idea.
The revised tariffs from Vodafone Idea will be applicable from November 25. Users who recharge prior to November 25 will be able to avail the existing tariffs.
The company claimed the reason to increase its tariffs was to improve its average revenue per user (ARPU). Vodafone Idea has the lowest ARPU in the industry at ₹104. The Mukesh Ambani-led telco Reliance Jio has an ARPU of ₹144 and Airtel has an ARPU of ₹153.
“The new plans will start the process of ARPU improvement and help address the financial stress faced by the industry,” the company said in a statement.
The last major tariff revision was in December 2019, when the three telcos, Airtel, Vodafone and Jio announced a tariff hike. Jio is the only telco left that has not revised its tariffs. We expect a similar announcement from the company in the coming days.
