Vodafone, a leading GSM service provider in India, has now increased rates of both its 2G and 3G data. The new rates for “pay as you go” pre-paid and post paid users are 4 paise per 10KB, as compared to 2 paise per 10KB charged earlier.
Earlier, in November 2013, Vodafone had reduced the rates by up to 80 per cent to 2 paisa per 10KB, from 10 paisa per 10KB.
Note that most operators currently offer 2G and 3G data at 2 paisa per 10KB and this hike by Vodafone is in all likelihood would be emulated by other operators soon.
Vodafone currently is the No 2 operator in India after Airtel.
