Actually this is not a new plan.. the area/circle CGM using their special power can grant discount for any plan which is not attractive to the customers / or the competition is too tough in his area may grant discounts for a limited period only...in this case kolkatta users are lucky!!

however in area like Chennai unless the competitors are proactive, u may not expect such plan..

Can't home user avail business plans?

Also BSNL doesn't loose much. Rs 15k upfront means that:
- Interests will add up to Rs 16K - 18K
- Get the user for atleast a year

Home plans are Issued to Normal Individuals.the telephone should be in name for some person.

For Subscription to a Business plan, a telephone should be in name of a company,firm,or any other form of organization Only.

NORMAL individual can't take Business plans, unless you transfer your phone ownership in name of some fictitious company

There are many other applications like providing Video conferences,download project data etc etc.

Remember in Business environment, there are more than 1 user, so there can be 50 users using the same connection
All this needs speed

Red face Re: A killer plan from Kolkatta BSNL!!

In another forum some of the members has pointed out kolkata BSNL has no such plan at Rs3300/ with speed 8mbps
Now i am thinking on the same line, perhaps I am mistaken.. this is not a existing plan either they upgrade existing Business ULRs 3300/ which has the speed of 256 kbps only or some mistake in the advertisement. However even in hindi advertisement same unlimited is repeated..see here




Even the UL6000 has the speed up to 516kbps only
What are they up to..

Only way BSNL offer this plan in all India basis is they 'll watch how Kolkata BSNL is implemented this with out alienating their existing customers Base, and how the market is dominating by the rival players..
so two factors depended on it,

How the Kolkata BSNL plan is increasing their market share?

How the rival players are strongest growing despite their effort in other circles?


There is a third factor which may come in to play... as a pressure from customers demand through e-mail to CMD, BSNL, and Minister of communication...

Vaithy

Do they really listen to e-mails?
If yes, then i would request them to change time of NU(happy hours).
It should atleast start from 00:00hrs, as MTNL is Giving its customer.

By doing this BSNL would be at par with MTNL.

The present time is very unearthy

Hi All.
Stop making day-dreams. The 8mbps speed is for BSNL nodes only. Didn't you observed the asterisk at 8 mbps speed in that Ad. I think it means that you will get 8 mbps speed within bsnl dataone network only. The speed will not be effective for connectivity where the server is out of BSNL network.

Have anyone got clearance from Kolkatta BSNL about that asterisk?

Dude, you got it all wrong. The star like always means that it is going to be upto 8Mbps. Not that it's going to be only within BSNL network Don't spread FUD, if you have no knowledge of what you're speaking..
