Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) is offering various types of prepaid plans such as unlimited combo plans, voice-only plans, SMS packs and data-only packs. There’s no doubt that BSNL has some of the best unlimited combo prepaid plans in the industry, but customers may exhaust daily data benefit very frequently.

The telco’s STV 998 is probably the best data plan available in the industry as it comes with 3GB data per day for a period of 240 days.

STV 998 BSNL Data Pack
Last on the list is the STV 998 which is probably the best data pack available on BSNL’s network. This comes with 3GB of data per day for a whopping 240 days. However, BSNL says this plan is valid only till March 23, 2021. We hope the telco extends the availability of this plan for another 90 days.
