December 21, 2006 17:21 IST

The company release said that:
* Till now the minimum bandwidth available to broadband customers was 256 Kbps. BSNL has now decided that all the Home and Business Plans will offer data rates up to 2 Mbps, subject to technical feasibility.
* Further, the downloading limits in Home 250 and Business 700 plans have been enhanced to 1 GB and 4 GB from 400 MB and 2 GB, respectively. The limits in other plans have been suitably enhanced. With the increase in downloading limit, a Plan 250 customer will get a benefit of Rs 840 per month for 1 GB limit and Business Plan 700 customer will get a benefit of Rs 2400 per month for limits up to 4GB.
* BSNL has also decided to bring down the per MB downloading rates from 1.40 per MB to Rs.0.90 per MB in Home 250 plan and the rates have also been lowered in other plans.
* BSNL has also decided to reduce the fixed monthly charges from ADSL modems from Rs 100 to Rs 60 per month which would benefit about 800,000 customer of BSNL. The reduction is applicable with effect from December 1, 2006.

Wow, thats a nice new year gift from Bsnl, but considering the trouble ppl have in getting a bsnl connection, only existing customers will enjoy the benefits me thinks. But if they do come out with a 2 mbps unlimited plan for 900 bucks, i'll go for it

@mrao it should apply to mtnl too.
@kaz there's no mention anywhere about 900 ul But the most shocking thing is the home 250 plans has a cap of 1 gb
. To enjoy the fruits of the speed u got to sit up late at night. Furthermore, if you browse during the day and if u open up a site with a lot of flash animation, it will get downloaded in the blink of an eye before you can press the stop button cos of the speed, so you'll have to turn off the multimedia stuff in your browser or you'll exhaust it in a couple of days.
