New Delhi:
India’s largest telecom operator Airtel has come up with a new and exciting offer to retain its old customers and attract the new ones. It is now offering 60 GB free data to its customers for 6 months.
But there’s a catch in order to avail this offer. The customers will have to install the Airtel TV app on their smartphones. By doing so, they will receive a confirmation within 24 hours regarding the free data.
Once the customers install the Airtel TV APK from MyAirtell app, the free data will be credited to their accounts in 24 hours. They will get 10 GB data per month for total 6 months free of cost.
This offer is valid only for those using MyAirtell app. In case, they do not have the app, they can download it from the Google Play Store and then install the Airtel TV app.

The country’s largest telecom operator is facing a tough competition with the new entrant into telecom industry Jio. And in order to compete with it, Airtel recently announced to introduce Rs 2,500 4G smartphone this Diwali.
In order to make this happen, the telecommunications services company is in talks with multiple handset makers and will partner with one of them.
According to reports, Mukesh Ambani's JioPhone has already received over 6 million pre-orders. While Jio is offering its users an Internet-enabled feature phone for a refundable deposit of Rs. 1,500, Airtel users may avail a full-fledged 4G smartphone if they prepare their mind to shell out a little more.
"The company is talking to various handset manufacturers to bring a Rs. 2,500 to Rs. 2,700 Android-based 4G smartphone to the market around Diwali," a source close to the operator was quoted while interacting with PTI.
