BSNL ₹107 Recharge Plan Updated: Validity Reduced to 35 Days!

If you use BSNL’s ₹107 prepaid recharge plan, this update is important for you. BSNL has officially reduced the plan’s validity from 40 days to 35 days.
While all other benefits remain the same, this shorter validity means you’ll now need to recharge more frequently.
In this blog, we’ll explain:
- What’s changed in the new plan
- What benefits you still get
- How users are reacting
- Why BSNL is doing this
- What you should do next
What’s Included in the Updated ₹107 Plan?
Here’s what the BSNL ₹107 plan includes after the revision:
Validity: 35 days (earlier it was 40 days)
Internet Data: 3GB (one-time lump sum)
Voice Calling: 200 minutes (local + STD + roaming across BSNL and MTNL networks)
Extras: Free BSNL Tunes (caller tune service)
So even though validity is now shorter, the call and data benefits remain unchanged.
What Does This Mean for You?
Because the validity is now reduced, you’ll have to recharge more often than before.
Previously, 9 recharges of ₹107 would cover 360 days. Now you’ll need to recharge 10 or even 11 times per year — which means you’ll be spending more for the same benefits.
This is what many are calling an indirect price hike.
What Are Users Saying?
Many BSNL users, especially those in rural areas or using BSNL as a secondary SIM, are unhappy about this change.
They often use this plan to keep the SIM active just for receiving calls.
One user said:
“The plan is okay for basic use, but shortening the validity means we’ll have to recharge more often. That’s like increasing the cost without increasing the benefits.”
Why Did BSNL Make This Change?
BSNL is preparing to launch its 4G services and facing financial challenges. So instead of directly increasing the plan price, they’ve chosen to reduce the validity.
This way, users recharge more frequently — and BSNL earns more without raising the price tag. It’s a classic "soft price hike" strategy used by telecom companies to improve revenue.
How to Recharge This Plan?
You can recharge the ₹107 plan from:
- My BSNL App
- Official BSNL Website: www.bsnl.co.in
- Recharge apps: Paytm, PhonePe, Google Pay
- Your nearest BSNL customer care or local retailer
📌 Note: Some users said they couldn’t see the plan in the app. If that happens, just search for ₹107 manually.
What Should You Do Now?
Here’s what to keep in mind:
- Set a reminder every 35 days to recharge on time
- Track your recharge dates carefully to avoid service interruption
- Contact BSNL customer care if you face issues in your circle
- Explore other BSNL plans if your needs change
Conclusion
BSNL’s ₹107 plan is still a good choice for light usage — basic calls and internet. But now, you’ll have to recharge every 35 days instead of 40.
So while the price looks the same, you’ll be spending a bit more over the year.
It’s important to stay alert and manage your recharges smartly!
