BANGALORE: Airtel has reduced its local outgoing call tariffs to Re one per minute.

All Airtel prepaid mobile customers whose existing local call rates are more than Re one per minute will be migrated to the revised tariff with effect from Thursday ( 3 January).

The revised rates will appy to any local call made from an Airtel prepaid mobile to an Airtel mobile, an Airtel prepaid mobile to any other mobile network in the same circle and an Airtel prepaid mobile to any local landline number.

This benefit will be extended to the postpaid customer segment within the next week.

However, the tariff change is not applicable to '495 life time' prepaid customers and other customers enjoying special benefits like 'Happy Recharge'.

Airtel Mobile Services president Sanjay Kapoor said, "This initiative marks our strategic intent to simplify tariffs and differentiate ourselves in a market already cluttered with multiple tariff plans."
