Tata Sky Launches New, Unlimited Broadband Plans, Starting at Rs 590



With the impending launch of Jio GigaFiber expected to upend the fixed-line broadband industry the way it changed the mobile telephone landscape earlier in the decade, most incumbent broadband service providers are bracing for the expected onslaught by reducing prices, increasing data caps or, like in the case of Tata Sky, introducing a bunch of new, unlimited plans at relatively affordable price-points.

Believed to have been spotted first by TelecomTalk, Tata Sky, known primarily for its DTH TV services, has listed a number of new unlimited broadband plans on its official website. The most affordable of the lot is a 16Mbps plan priced at Rs. 590 per month, while the other plans come with download speeds of 25Mbps, 50Mbps, 75Mbps and 100Mbps. All the plans come with free routers when subscribed for a period of at least three months.


Tata Sky New Broadband Plans in Ahmedabad It’s worth noting that the available plans and pricing vary significantly across regions, with the Rs. 590 price-point applicable for Ahmedabad, but subscribers in Mumbai, Delhi and Kolkata won’t even have that option. While the base unlimited plans being offered in the two biggest cities are 25Mbps connections priced at Rs. 999 per month, plans in Kolkata start even higher, at Rs. 1,199 for a 50Mbps unlimited connection.

Plans with fixed data allocation, however, are a lot more affordable and start at much lower price-points for the most part. In Kolkata, for instance, fixed GB plans start at Rs. 599, which brings 50GB of monthly data at 10Mbps, while a 50Mbps connection with a 125GB data-cap comes with a Rs. 849 price-tag. In Mumbai and Delhi, however, even limited plans start at Rs. 999 per month, which brings 200GB of data at 50Mbps.

Race 3 movie review: Not a Salman Khan fan? Mind your own business

Race 3 Director  - Remo D’Souza Cast  - Salman Khan, Bobby Deol, Jacqueline Fernandez, Anil Kapoor, Saqib Saleem, Daisy Shah Rating  - 1/5 During one of the many forced fist fights in Race 3, Salman Khan is getting the better of his opponents when he is hit by a rod. He smirks, turns towards the camera and punches the enemy in face as if he is punishing the man for not recognising the Bhai of Bollywood. The camera doesn’t cut to the rod, which, I am sure, is broken in half by now. Such is Salman’s unparalleled rage and such is the vision of director Remo D’Souza. Race 3 is everything film students are taught not to do, but then what do they know? From the first scene in which Anil Kapoor blows up a gang member with the help of a pen bomb to Salman coming to the rescue of his family in a base-jump suit, Race 3 unabashedly targets the fans. There isn’t any pretension of logical filmmaking or sound screenplay. It seems Race 3 categorically wants the non-Salman fans ...

Samsung will unveil the Galaxy S9 next month

Samsung will unveil its next flagship handset, the Galaxy S9, next month at Mobile World Congress (MWC). The company’s smartphone chief, DJ Koh, confirmed the launch to  ZDNet  at CES yesterday. Koh didn’t offer a specific date, but MWC will run from February 26th to March 1st this year, so expect the unveiling to fall somewhere in that time frame. The S9 (and, presumably, an S9 Plus) will be the successors to the S8 and S8 Plus, which launched at a Samsung event in New York last March before going on sale in April. The S8 and its bigger brother were a hit with critics, who praised the phones’ gorgeous design and brilliant cameras. The phones were even good enough to make consumers forget about the disaster of the Galaxy Note 7 and its exploding batteries. Not much is known about the Galaxy S9 at this point, though we’re not expecting any radical departures from the S8. A handful of leaked renders suggest it will look near-identical to its predecessor, with a sl...

Apple iPhone sales were down 20 per cent on an yearly basis in the month of November, even as the iPhone XR was the best-selling model, showed Counterpoint data Apple iPhone sales were down 20 per cent on an yearly basis in November 2018, even as the iPhone XR was the best-selling model, according to numbers shared by Counterpoint research. The numbers come as Apple has slashed forecast for the first quarter of 2019 (October to December 2018), which is being seen as a rare miss for the technology giant. According to Counterpoint, sale of new iPhones, which includes the iPhone XR, XS and XS MAX were down over 20 per cent Y-o-Y compared to last year’s launches of the iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus and iPhone X in 2017.
