Bharti Airtel has quietly removed one of its postpaid plans in India. Customers seeking a higher-tier plan must now opt for the ₹699 Family plan, which includes one primary and one add-on SIM connection. Meanwhile, the ₹449 individual plan remains the entry-level option for new subscribers. Although the telecom service provider has not issued an official statement explaining the reason for this change, the ₹549 postpaid plan is no longer listed on the Airtel website or the Airtel Thanks app.

With the removal of the ₹549 individual postpaid plan, users must choose between the entry-level ₹449 option and the ₹699 Family plan. No changes have been made to the rest of Airtel's postpaid lineup.

Airtel Postpaid Plans: Price and Benefits
The ₹449 individual postpaid plan remains the most affordable option in Airtel's portfolio. It offers unlimited 4G and 5G data, unlimited local, STD, and national roaming calls, along with 100 SMS per day. Subscribers get access to 'Fast Lane' technology with 5G slicing, 100GB of Google One cloud storage for six months, Airtel Xstream Play Premium for three months, Adobe Express Premium for one year, free Hello Tunes, and Blue Ribbon Bag tracking services.

This plan also bundles Airtel's security features, including fraud link blocking, spam protection, and OTP alerts.

Customers looking for a higher-tier plan must now move directly to the ₹699 Family plan instead of the ₹549 individual plan. It includes one regular SIM and one free add-on SIM, bringing the effective cost to approximately ₹350 per member. This plan offers unlimited 4G and 5G data, unlimited voice calls, and 100 SMS per day for both users.

In addition to standard Airtel benefits, it bundles a six-month Amazon Prime Mobile subscription, one year of JioHotstar Mobile access, six months of Google One cloud storage (100GB), three months of Airtel Xstream Play Premium, and 12 months of Adobe Express Premium. Subscribers also gain access to Fast Lane Technology with 5G slicing, Blue Ribbon Bag tracking, free Hello Tunes, fraud link blocking, spam detection, and OTP alerts.

Customers can choose from the ₹999 family plan (with two free add-on SIMs), the ₹1,199 and ₹1,399 plans (with three add-on SIMs), and the top-end ₹1,749 family plan, which includes four free add-on SIMs.

These higher-tier plans bundle extra entertainment subscriptions—such as Apple TV+ and Netflix—alongside standard benefits like unlimited data, voice calling, and other Airtel services.
