Bsnl Launches 20 Gb 3g at 50


BSNL has decided to offer 20 GB 3G data for only Rs 50. And this 20 GB can be shared among 5 users, all over India.
Right now, 1 GB of 3G data is being sold for Rs 160-250 by various telecom players; but BSNL is now providing 20 times that data at one fourth of price.

As per available reports, this special BSNL offer is a subsidized plan, powered by PM Modi’s Digital India campaign; and the sole purpose is to enable every section of the society with high speed Internet at affordable prices.

Last year, BSNL had attempted to disrupt the market by offering 80% cheaper tariff.

Digital India Push: No Dedicated Connection Needed For Internet
This new BSNL offer is also remarkable in several ways. To start with, the user need not take a full fledged connection to avail this offer. And, this 20 GB can be shared among 5 users, from all over India as well.

Users are required to register at BSNL’s selfcare portal, and then include the phone numbers which would share the Internet plan. The primary user would be billed for the main pack, and the rest 4 users can use Internet without paying any amount.

As per BSNL General Manager Ram Shabd Yadav, this subsidized plan has been launched to enable 100% Internet connectivity across India. And, BSNL will certainly attract new users as well.

Massive Tariff War Unleashed
As the focus of almost every telecom firm is on 4G right now, BSNL has actually surprised everyone with this scintillating offer. A massive tariff war has been started, as private telecom companies will be forced to have a hard look at their plans and offers; especially for the 3G market.
Now, on one side is Reliance Jio, which will offer 75 GB 4G data and 4500 minutes of talk time for Rs 200 ; and on the other hand is BSNL with 20 GB of 3G data for only Rs 50. Other telecom players like Idea, Vodafone, Airtel etc would be now in a competitive dilemma over their own pricing strategy, as BSNL’s offer is surely going to disrupt the market. As BSNL is also going to launch their 4G services & video on demand service , telecom market in India is surely witnessing some major disruption.

Earlier, BSNL had committed to connect 1 lakh panchayats with high speed broadband connection within a year; and this new plan can be a part of this scheme.

A Worried Boss - Funny..

When one of your employees misses work, the extra duties might fall on your shoulder. This can be annoying, but a necessary part of being a manger or business owner. But when an outstanding employee doesn’t show up for work without calling in sick, this is much more worrying.

That’s what happened for the boss in this story, so he picked up the phone and called him employee’s home.
Boss Calls Employee’s House And Starts Getting Nervous When He Hears This.

A boss wondered why one of his most valued employees had not rung in sick one day. Having an urgent problem with a main computer, he phoned the employee’s home number and was greeted with a child’s whisper,
“Hello?”

“Is your Daddy home?” he asked.

“Yes,” whispered the small voice.

“May I speak to him?”

The child whispered, “No.”

Surprised and wanting to talk to an adult, the boss asked, “Is your Mummy there?”

“Yes.”

“Well, may I speak to her then?

Again the small voice whispered, “No.”

Hoping there was somebody with whom he could leave a message, the boss asked, “Is anybody else there?”

“Yes,” whispered the child, “a policeman.”

Wondering what the police would be doing at his employee’s home, the boss asked,
“May I speak to the policeman?”

“No, he’s busy,” whispered the child.

“Busy doing what?”

“Talking to Mummy and Daddy and the fireman,” came the whispered reply.

Growing more worried as he heard a loud noise in the background coming down the phone, the boss asked,

“What’s that noise?”

“A helicopter,” answered the whispering voice.

“What’s going on there?” demanded the boss, now really apprehensive.

Again, whispered, the child answered, “The search team just landed a helicopter.”

Alarmed, concerned, and a little frustrated, the boss asked, “What are they searching for?”

Still whispering, the young voice replied with a muffled giggle…”ME!”

Marketing

What is MARKETING ?
This is how a Professor explained Marketing Concepts to a class.

1. You see a Gorgeous Girl at a party. You go up to her and say: "I am very rich. Marry me!"-
That's Direct Marketing.

2. You are at a party with a bunch of friends and see a Gorgeous Girl.
One of your friends goes up to her and pointing at you says: "He's very rich. Marry him!"-
That's Advertising.
.
3. You are at a party and see a Gorgeous Girl. She walks up to you and says: "You are very rich! Can I marry you?"-
That's Brand Recognition.
.
4. You see a Gorgeous Girl at a party. You go upto her and say: "I am very rich. Marry me!"
She gives you a nice hard slap on your face.-
That's Customer Feedback.
.
5. You see a Gorgeous Girl at a party. You go upto her and say: "I am very rich. Marry me!"
And she introduces you to her husband.-
That's Demand and Supply Gap.
.
6. You see a Gorgeous Girl at a party. You go upto her and before you say: "I m rich, Marry me!",
your wife arrives.-
That's Restriction for Entering New Markets. .

Hope Concepts are clear...
